Insights into the molecular mechanism of glucose metabolism regulation under stress in chicken skeletal muscle tissues

摘要

As substantial progress has been achieved in modern poultry production with large-scale and intensive feeding and farming in recent years, stress becomes a vital factor affecting chicken growth, development, and production yield, especially the quality and quantity of skeletal muscle mass. The review was aimed to outline and understand the stress-related genetic regulatory mechanism, which significantly affects glucose metabolism regulation in chicken skeletal muscle tissues. Progress in current studies was summarized relevant to the molecular mechanism and regulatory pathways of glucose metabolism regulation under stress in chicken skeletal muscle tissues. Particularly, the elucidation of those concerned pathways promoted by insulin and insulin receptors would give key clues to the understanding of biological processes of stress response and glucose metabolism regulation under stress, as well as their later effects on chicken muscle development.
