Abstract

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of heat treatment on the expression of appetite regulation- and adenosine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway-related genes in hypothalamus. Hypothalamus neuron cells of broilers were cultured in vitro with six porous plates, and the hypothalamus neuron cell culture model was established. Neuronal cells which cultured in vitro were divided into control group and heat treatment group, and cultured in incubator (37℃, 5%CO2). Each group had six replicates, and each replicate corresponded to a hole. Heat treatment was carried out on the 5th day of culture, the neuronal cells in the control group were cultured at 37℃, and the neuronal cells in the heat treatment group were cultured at 43℃. After 1.5 h of heat treatment, neuronal cells were collected and the mRNA relative expression levels of regulation- and AMPK signaling pathway-related genes in hypothalamus neuronal cells were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) technique. The results showed as follows:compared with the control group, 1) heat treatment significantly up-related the mRNA relative expression levels of hypothalamus appetite-stimulating gene agouti-related protein (AgRP) and appetite-suppressing gene proopiomelanocortin (POMC) (P<0.05); 2) heat treatment significantly down-related the mRNA relative expression levels of hypothalamus AMPK signaling pathway-related genes AMPKα2 and fatty acid synthase (FAS) (P<0.05); 3) heat treatment significantly up-related the mRNA relative expression levels of hypothalamus AMPK signaling pathway upstream factor serine/threonine protein kinase 1 (AKT1) (P<0.05). It is concluded that heat treatment can significantly up-regulate the expression of appetite-stimulating gene AgRP and appetite-suppressing gene POMC in hypothalamus, and it also can significantly down-regulate the expression of AMPKα2 and FAS genes and up-regulate the expression of AKT1 gene in AMPK signaling pathway in hypothalamus.
