Protective Roles of Prebiotics and Probiotics Against Environmental Pollutant‐Induced Toxicities: A Systematic Review of Animal Studies

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
Pollutant‐induced epithelial damage also leads to a cascade of harmful effects, including reduced mucus secretion, decreased luminal pH, and enhanced absorption of toxins. These changes contribute to oxidative stress (↑ malondialdehyde (MDA); ↓ superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and heightened ...
