Dietary Resveratrol Alleviates AFB1-Induced Ileum Damage in Ducks via the Nrf2 and NF-κB/NLRP3 Signaling Pathways and CYP1A1/2 Expressions

The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism underlying the protective effects of resveratrol against Aflatoxin B1-induced ileum injury in ducks. A corn–soybean meal-basal diet and two test diets (500 mg/kg resveratrol +0.2 mg Aflatoxin B1/kg, 0.2 mg AFB1/kg) were used in a 10-wk design trial (n = 15 ducks/group). These results showed that the toxicity of Aflatoxin B1 significantly reduced the antioxidant capacity of duck ileum and induced inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and DNA damage in ducks. The expression of genes, including CYP1A2, CYP2A6, and CYP3A4, at the mRNA level was significantly upregulated (p 1. The level of Nrf2 was suppressed (p p 1 group. However, supplementation with 500 mg/kg dietary resveratrol in Aflatoxin B1-induced ducks significantly ameliorated these alterations and decreased the mRNA expression of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 (p 1-DNA adducts (p 1-DNA adducts by downregulating the expression of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2, and reduced DNA damage and oxidative stress via the Nrf2/ Keap1 and NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathways
