Interactions of diet and treatment on mRNA abundance of a) CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha and b) Neuropeptide Y receptor 2 in subcutaneous fat. Chicks fed one of three diets (HC: high-carbohydrate; HF: high-fat; HP: high-protein) were either continuously fed (fed), fasted for 3 h (fasted) or fasted and refed for 1 h (refed) with n =10 per group. Values represent least squares means ± SEM. The P-values for the main effect of treatment are displayed above the bars for each dietary group. Different letters within a dietary group indicate a significant difference at P < 0.05; Tukey’s test
