Transcriptional insights into aflatoxin B1 induced hepatotoxicity and comparative effects of medicinal herbs in pigs
The results indicate that certain medicinal herbs could counteract AFB1-induced gene expression responses in liver. Their application as dietary supplements to reduce potentially harmful effects caused by AFB1 toxicity in farm animals might be an effective tool in improving animal health, productivity and food safety.
