Compound Abrus cantoniensis Extract Alleviates AFB1‐Induced Liver Injury by Regulating PI3K‐AKT Pathway and Gut Microbiota/Butyrate Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ACCE has a good alleviating effect on AFB1‐induced liver injury, and this alleviating effect is related to the PI3K‐AKT pathway regulated by ACCE and the butyrate metabolism of gut microbiota. ABSTRACT Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a potent hepatotoxin commonly ingested through contaminated food. Abrus cantoniensis Hance, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb,

Carcinogenic Mycotoxins*

, 2010
Mycotoxins are metabolites of molds considered to be a major risk factor affecting human and animal health. It is estimated that 25% of the world’s crop production is contaminated with mycotoxins. Mold contamination occurs extensively in fields and is particularly severe in tropical countries.

Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...
