Effect of ICV injection of control solution (normal saline + 0.1% Evans Blue) and different levels of the spexin (5, 7.5 and 10 nmol) on cumulative food intake (g/100 g BW) in neonatal broiler chicks (n = 11 per group). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Different letters (a-d) indicate significant differences between treatments at each time (P < 0.05). [Treatment effect: F(3,40) = 1723.13, P < 0.05; time effect: F(2,80) = 4281.06, P < 0.05; treatment × time interaction: F(6,80) = 38.53; P < 0.05]
