From: Uric acid transporters BCRP and MRP4 involved in chickens uric acid excretion
Relative BCRP and MRP4 mRNA levels in the liver, kidney, jejunum, and ileum of chickens in different treatment groups, as determined by QPCR. NC: control group; SD: sulfonamide-supplemented group; FM: fish meal group; IU: injection uric acid group. a and b: BCRP and MRP4 mRNA expression in the liver; c and d: BCRP and MRP4 mRNA expression in the kidneys; e and f: BCRP and MRP4 mRNA expression in the jejunum; g and h: BCRP and MRP4 mRNA expression in the ileum. The mRNA relative expression levels were normalized to the average level of the control group. All data are means ± SE, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 compared with the NC group, N = 5 samples per treatment
