Ferulic acid prevents aflatoxin B1-induced liver injury in rats via inhibiting cytochrome P450 enzyme, activating Nrf2/GST pathway and regulating mitochondrial pathway

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) causes oxidative stress and hepatocyte apoptosis through its epoxidized metabolite AFBO, which is catalyzed by CYP450 enzymes. Ferulic acid (FA) is a phenolic acid commonly found in plants and is known for its antioxidant capacity. However, the role of FA in AFB1-induced liver in...
