As shown in Table 3 , in broiler livers, the differences in liver function parameters among groups were highly significant ( p < 0.01).

Following cortisol treatment, the mRNA levels of Nrf2 ( p < 0.01), HO-1 ( p < 0.05), and GSH-Px ( p < 0.05) showed a significant downward trend, whilst CAT and SOD also exhibited a downward trend; however, this change did not reach statistical significance ( p > 0.05).
RSV significantly mitigated the CORT-induced increase in SREBP-1 mRNA and protein expression and the decrease in PPARα protein expression; CORT caused a decline in the antioxidant function of AA broiler livers, with significant decreases in SOD and GSH-PX ( p < 0.05), and the expression of Nrf2 and its downstream genes also showed a decreasing trend.
