Coexistence of aflatoxicosis with protein malnutrition worsens hepatic oxidative damage in rats

Coexistence of aflatoxicosis with protein malnutrition worsens hepatic oxidative damage in rats

To investigate the effects of the coexistence of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and protein malnutrition in rat liver, weanling rats were fed either normal protein diet (20% protein), low‐protein (PEM) diet (5%), normal protein diet + 40 ppb AFB1, or low‐protein diet + 40 ppb AFB1. After 8 weeks, biomarkers of hepatic functions and oxidative stress, caspase‐3 activity, and tumor suppressor protein...
