Abstract
Mycotoxins have strong immunotoxicity and can induce oxidative stress and mitochondrial dynamics imbalance. Mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein (MAVS) in the RIG-I like receptor (RLR) pathway of innate immunity is located on mitochondria, and whether it is affected by mycotoxins has not been reported yet. This experiment used porcine alveolar macrophages (PAM) to evaluate the antagonism of three isomers of chlorogenic acid (chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid A, and neochlorogenic acid) against combined mycotoxins (Aflatoxin B1, Deoxynivalenol, and Ochratoxin A) induced mitochondrial damage and their effects on the RLR pathway, providing assistance for further elucidating the mechanism of mycotoxin immunotoxicity. Western blotting, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and flow cytometry were used to detect relevant indicators. All three types of chlorogenic acid treatment can antagonize the cytotoxicity induced by combined mycotoxins, especially isochlorogenic acid A, which can protect cells from mycotoxins damage by maintaining mitochondrial dynamic homeostasis and improving innate immune function related to the RLR pathway.
