摘要: Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is the only mycotoxin with maximum residue limit in milk, which may result in serious human diseases. On the contrary, lactoferrin (Lf) is an active protein with multiple functions. Studies have confirmed that Lf has a powerful potential to protect the intestines, but the influence of Lf on mycotoxins is not clear. This study aims to explore whether Lf can protect the cytotoxicity induced by AFM1, and determine the underlying mechanisms in human normal colonic epithelial NCM460 cells. The results indicated that AFM1 decreased the cell viability, and increased the levels of apoptosis and autophagy of NCM460 cells. Lf can alleviate the cytotoxicity induced by AFM1 through enhancing cell viability, significantly down-regulated the expression of apoptotic genes and proteins (BAX, caspase3, caspase9, caspase3, and caspase9), and regulated the gene and protein expression of autophagy factors (Atg5, Atg7, Atg12, Beclin1, ULK1, ULK2, LC3, and p62). Furthermore, interference of the key gene Atg5 of autophagy can reduce AFM1-induced apoptosis, which is consistent with the role of Lf, implying that Lf may protect AFM1-induced intestinal injury by inhibiting excessive autophagy-mediated apoptosis. Taken together, our data indicated that Lf has a mitigating effect on apoptosis induced by AFM1 through the autophagy pathway.
