Chick's susceptibility to heat stress often leads growth retardation, immune function impairment, disease, and mortality. This thesis explores the potential ameliorative effect of 0.8% Eucommia ulmoides extract (EUE) into diet heat-stressed chicks in a 15-d feeding trial. The investigation reveals that EUE significantly enhances BW, ADG, AFI, F/G experiencing stress. Additionally, groups exhibited higher levels T-AOC (at 7 15d), SOD 15 d), GSH-Px as well lower MDA concentrations 15d) chick serum. Pathological changes H&E staining revealed effectively improved tissue damage duodenum, heart, stomach induced by chicks. also showed IgA IgG IgM d). RNA-seq WGCNA analysis mitigates cellular losses primarily through pathways involving signal transduction, protein synthesis degradation, cell cycle regulation, particularly latter. serves fundamental cognitive framework for development application feed additives aimed at safeguarding well-being adverse environmental conditions.
