Abstract:Abstract:Neurocrine axis or hypothalamus-pituitary growth axis plays a major role of regulation in the progress of animal growth and development. It consists of somatostatin(SS) and growth hormone releasing hormone(GHRH) secreted by hypothalamus, growth hormone secreted by pituitary, chicken growth hormone receptor and insulin-like growth factor-Ⅰsecreted by target organs(such as liver), as well as the path of hypothalamus-pituitary-target organs. Analysis of related genes in chicken growth axis and their interaction mechanism were reviewed in order to understand more about the regulation mechanism of poultry growth.
