Alloantigen systems L and P influence phagocytic function independent of the major histocompatability complex (B) in chickens

POULTRY SCIENCE, 79(9), 1271–1275.

By: M. Qureshi n, R. Ali n, L. Thomas n, R. Baloch n & W. Briles*

author keywords: alloantigen systems; phagocytosis; chicken major histocompatability complex; immunity
MeSH headings : Animals; Cells, Cultured; Chickens / genetics; Chickens / immunology; Crosses, Genetic; Escherichia coli; Female; Genotype; Isoantigens / physiology; Major Histocompatibility Complex; Male; Monocytes / immunology; Phagocytosis
TL;DR: It is suggested that the L and P non-MHC alloantigen systems have the potential to influence immune responses by modulating phagocytic function in chickens, and this modulation seems to be independent of the B (MHC) system. (via Semantic Scholar)

Turkey hen zinc source affects progeny immunity and disease resistance

JOURNAL OF APPLIED POULTRY RESEARCH, 9(3), 414–423.

By: M. Kidd n, M. Qureshi n, P. Ferket n & L. Thomas n

author keywords: Bordetella avium; cellular immunity; macrophage; progeny; turkey; zinc methionine
TL;DR: Results indicate that dietary ZnM supplementation to hens may aid progeny immune organ development and enhance nonspecific immunity, however, progeny from hens supplemented with Znm had a depressed BW after B. avium infection that may have been due to a heightened immune response.

Enzyme supplementation to enhance wheat utilization in starter diets for broilers and turkeys

JOURNAL OF APPLIED POULTRY RESEARCH, 6(2), 147–154.

By: A. Crouch n, J. Grimes n, P. Ferket n, L. Thomas n & A. Sefton*

author keywords: body weight; chicks; enzyme; feed conversion; gut viscosity; poults; wheat
TL;DR: It was concluded that supplementation of wheat sources for both chicks and poults lowered intestinal viscosity, and enzyme supplementation of NC wheat diets improved performance of chicks andpoults and source of wheat affected chick and poult performance. (via Semantic Scholar)
