Effects of the Maximum Recommended Levels of Fumonisins in the EU on Oxylipin Profiles in the Liver and Brain of Chickens

This study aimed to assess the effects of a diet containing 20.8 mg FB1 + FB2/kg over four and nine days on oxylipin (OL) profiles in the liver and brain of chickens. A total of 96 OLs, derived from seven polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) via the cyclooxygenase (COX), lipoxygenase (LOX), cytochrom...

description This study aimed to assess the effects of a diet containing 20.8 mg FB1 + FB2/kg over four and nine days on oxylipin (OL) profiles in the liver and brain of chickens. A total of 96 OLs, derived from seven polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) via the cyclooxygenase (COX), lipoxygenase (LOX), cytochrome P450 (P450), and non-enzymatic pathways, were measured using HPLC-MS/MS. In the liver, a significant increase in epoxide P450-derived OLs was detected by day 4, with smaller but notable increases in COX- and LOX-derived OLs by day 9. These alterations were independent of whether the parent PUFA was ω6 or ω3. However, OLs derived from 18-carbon (C18) PUFAs, such as linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, showed greater increases compared to those derived from C20 or C22 PUFAs. The diol/epoxide ratios in the liver decreased at four and nine days, suggesting that fumonisins did not induce an inflammatory response. In the brain, at four days, the most discriminative OLs were derived from ω3-PUFAs, including docosahexaenoic acid, docosapentaenoic acid, and alpha-linolenic acid, via the LOX pathway. By nine days, several OLs derived from arachidonic acid, spanning all enzymatic pathways, became discriminative. In general, the diol/epoxide ratios in the brain were decreased at 4 days and then returned to the initial levels. Taken together, these results show strong effects of fumonisins on OLs in the liver and brain that are both specific and distinct.
