Genes relating to the PI3K/PKB insulin signaling pathway: IR (insulin receptor), IRS-1 (insulin receptor substrate-1), PI3K (phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase), PKB/Akt (protein kinase B), and GSK-3β (glycogen synthase kinase-3β). NC (normal control broilers), HC (STZ-induced broilers), and quercetin (0.02%, 0.04%, and 0.06%) groups. Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test. Values are expressed as the and . Values with different letters are significantly different (). |
