  1. Aflatoxin B1 Induces Gut-Inflammation-Associated Fecal Lipidome Changes in F344 Rats

    • Toxicological Sciences

    • Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) induced intestinal epithelial damage in rodent models, which indicates that long-term exposure to AFB1 may cause chronic gut disorders. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that AFB1-induced adverse effects on gut is mediated by gut-microbiota, which is partially reflected by the changes of fecal microbiome and metabolome. F344 rats were orally exposed to AFB1 of 0, 5, 25, and 75 µg kg−1 body weight for 4 weeks and fecal samples were collected.
