In a healthy body, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants remain balanced. When
the balance is broken toward an overabundance of ROS, oxidative stress appears and may …

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the main types of B trichothecenes, and it causes health‐
related issues in humans and animals and imposes considerable challenges to food and …

In mammalian ovaries, oocytes are physically coupled to somatic granulosa cells, and this
coupling is crucial for the growth and development of competent oocytes as it mediates the …

Melatonin, a major hormone of the pineal gland, exerts many beneficial effects on
mitochondria. Several studies have shown that melatonin can protect against toxin‐induced …

Oocyte quality, which is directly related to reprogramming competence, is a major important
limiting factor in animal cloning efficiency. Compared with oocytes matured in vivo, in vitro …

Deoxynivalenol, also known as vomitotoxin, is produced by Fusarium, belonging to the
group B of the trichothecene family. DON is widely polluted, mainly polluting cereal crops …

Melatonin is a hormone which is generated from pineal gland, and it is responsible for the
regulation of wake-sleep cycle. Melatonin is a well-known antioxidant and free radical …

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is the most common mycotoxin contaminant in food and feed. DON
accumulation in food chain severely threatens human and animal health due to the toxic …

The pineal gland-derived indoleamine hormone, melatonin, regulates multiple cellular
processes, ranging from chronobiology, proliferation, apoptosis, and oxidative damage to …

In vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate that mitochondria in the oocyte, are susceptible to
damage by suboptimal pre/pregnancy conditions, such as obesity. These suboptimal …
