Most research studies investigating the estrogenic effects of zearalenone (ZEN) focus on the mycotoxin’s effect on the reproductive system. Since estrogen receptors are present on various types of immunocompetent cells, ZEN can also modify diverse immune functions. This study analyzed immunocompetent cells isolated from Peyer’s patches in the ileum of pigs administered ZEN in the estimated daily dose of 8 μg kg⁻¹ BW (equivalent of 100 μg kg⁻¹ feed per day⁻¹). The objective of the study was to determine whether long-term exposure to low ZEN doses below the NOEL threshold leads to changes in the percentages of lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokine secretion by Th1 (IL-2, IFN-γ) and Th2 (IL-4 and IL-10) lymphocytes in Peyer’s patches of the i...
