Front Cover: Deoxynivalenol Exposure Induced Colon Damage in Mice Independent of the Gut Microbiota

Mol. Nutr. Food Res. 2023,67,202300317DOI:10.1002/mnfr.202300317Deoxynivalenol (DON), the most common mycotoxin occurring in grain and grain products, can destroy the integrity of the colonic physical barrier and induce oxidative stress and apoptosis in the colon of mice with or without the existence of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation did not show significant role of gut microbiota in DON-induced colon damage. This is reported by Wei Yang, in article number2300317.
