Male mice received lycopene for 10 days before a single oral administration of zearalenone (ZEA). After 48 h testes and blood were collected. Mice treated with lycopene/ZEA exhibited amelioration of the hematological changes. Lycopene prevented the reduction in the number and motility of spermatozoa
This work investigated the effect of Escherichia coli K88 and zearalenone contamination on pro-inflammatory gene expression (Toll like receptors, cytokines) and signalling molecules and the protective activity of a mixture of Lactobacilli sp. (Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidofilus and
An experiment was conducted to determine the toxic effects of zearalenone (ZEN) on oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokines, biochemical and pathological changes in the kidney of pregnant rats, and to explore the possible mechanism in ZEN induced kidney damage. The rats were fed a normal diet
In this study, we investigated the influence of zearalenone (ZEA) on the dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model both in vitro and in vivo. Our results show that the mRNA levels of IL-1β, IL-18, NLRP3, ASC, and caspase-1 in the DSS+ZEA-treated group are lower than those in either the DSS
Dietary contamination by Zearalenone (ZEN) has a detrimental effect on bovine fertility. Recently, we showed a novel anti-inflammatory response of bovine oviductal epithelial cells (BOEC) to active sperm cells in vitro. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of ZEN exposure of
Zearalenone (ZEA) is an oestrogenic mycotoxin produced by Fusarium species, considered to be a risk factor from both public health and agricultural perspectives. In the present in vivo study, a feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the in vivo effect of a ZEA-contaminated diet on immune response
Zearalenone (ZEA), a mycotoxin produced by several Fusarium spp., is most commonly found as a contaminant in stored grain. ZEA derivatives (α-zearalenol (α-ZOL), β-zearalenol (β-ZOL)) can also be produced by Fusarium spp. in corn stems infected by fungi in the field. Also, following oral exposure,
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a non-steroidal estrogenic mycotoxin produced by the fungi of Fusarium genera. Piglets were fed for 18 days with a control or a ZEN (316 ppb) contaminated diet. At the end of the experiment tissue samples were taken for assessment of: lymphocyte proliferation, monocytes and
The intestinal epithelium is the first barrier against food contaminants and is highly sensitive to Fusarium toxins, especially deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEA). Here, we explored the effects of low doses of DON and/or ZEA in naturally moldy diets on intestinal functions in piglets,
To ascertain whether zearalenone (ZEA) could induce intestinal inflammation and investigate its possible mechanism, we investigated inflammatory cytokine release and the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome after ZEA treatment both in vitro or in vivo. First, intestinal porcine enterocyte cell line
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin that causes serious health problems in humans and animals. However, few studies have focused on the destruction of the intestinal barrier caused by ZEN. In this study, rats were exposed to different dosages of ZEN (0, 0.2, 1.0 and 5.0 mg/kg bw) by gavage for 4 weeks.
Radish (Raphanus sativus) has been extensively studied for its preventive effects against different degenerative diseases. Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium spp and is frequently implicated in immunological disorders and occasionally in hyperoestrogenic syndromes contributing to
Zearalenone (ZEA), which is produced by several fusarium mycotoxins, is found in animal feed and food products, and can exert estrogen-like activity. Melatonin (MT) is emerging as a supplement that can fight the toxic effects of mycotoxins. With a variety of physiological functions that play crucial
Zearalenone (ZEN) is a mycoestrogen with a ubiquitous presence in animal feeds, which also has hematotoxic, hepatotoxic, nephrotoxic, and immunotoxic properties. However, there is a paucity of literature that discusses the effects of ZEN on rabbits.The aim The present study was conducted to determine the abilities of the living Lactobacillus plantarum MON03 cells to degrade Zearalenone (ZEN) in liquid medium, and to elucidate the preventive effect in ZEN-contaminated balb/c mice showing kidney damage. The DNA fragmentation, Bcl-2 and Bax gene
