Angiopoietin-like protein 4 regulates breast muscle lipid metabolism in broilers.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to determine the effects of angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) on breast muscle lipid metabolism in broilers. In experiment 1, 36 thirty-five-day-old male Arbor Acres broilers were randomly allocated into 6 treatment groups with 6 birds in a completely randomized design. The broilers were subjected to intravenous injection of His-SUMO-ANGPTL4 at the dose of 0 (injection of normal saline [NS]), 20, 100, 500, 2,500, or 12,500 ng/kg BW, respectively. The results showed that broilers at 30 min after His-SUMO-ANGPTL4 at the level of 12,500 ng/kg BW intravenous injection had higher (P < 0.05) concentrations of triglyceride and non-esterified fatty acid in the serum, higher (P < 0.05) adipose triglyceride lipase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 mRNA expressi
