Lycopene relieves AFB1-induced liver injury through enhancing hepatic antioxidation and detoxification potential with Nrf2 activation
To evaluate the chemoprotective effect and mechanism of lycopene (LYC) on aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced liver injury, forty-eight male mice were randomly allocated and treated with LYC (5 mg/kg) and/or AFB1 (0.75 mg/kg) by intragastric administration for 30 days.
