Because of scant research data demonstrating the chronic effects of low doses of the T-2 toxin on humoral and cellular responses in rats, the present experiment was undertaken. The animals were divided into four groups, namely, group I (0.5 ppm), group II (0.75 ppm) and group III (1.0 ppm) and group IV (control) were given toxin-free diet for 12 weeks and eight animals each were sacrificed at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12-week of the experimental period. The humoral immune response was evaluated based on hemagglutination test (HA), and levels of serum immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, IgM) while the cell-mediated immune response was evaluated by delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response to ovalbumin, lymphocyte stimulation index, analyses of CD4\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    and CD8\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    T lymphocytes and mRNA expression levels of selected cytokines like IL-2, IFN-\u03b3, IL-4 and IL-10 by quantitative Real-time PCR in experimental groups. T-2 treatment caused suppression in both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses as evidenced by a decrease in all these parameters in toxin fed animals compared to the control in the dose and duration-dependent manner. This dose-dependent effect on the immune system has been further reflected largely by the depletion of lymphocytes from lymphoid organs as observed histopathologically in the spleen, thymus, and Peyer\u2019s patches in the present study.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0960327120968852","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,28]],"date-time":"2020-10-28T06:51:53Z","timestamp":1603867913000},"page":"772-790","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Immunopathological effects of experimental T-2 mycotoxicosis in Wistar rats"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"40","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8411-558X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shafiqur","family":"Rahman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Veterinary Pathology, Faculty of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, SKUAST-J, Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anil Kumar","family":"Sharma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Pathology, Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nittin Dev","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Pathology, College of Veterinary Science, Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Ludhiana, Punjab, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shahid","family":"Prawez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Pharmacology and Toxicology, Faculty of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, RGSC, Banaras Hindu University, Barkachha, Uttar Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0960327120968852","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.anifeedsci.2007.06.003"},{"key":"bibr2-0960327120968852","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.18632\/oncotarget.15422"},{"key":"bibr3-0960327120968852","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.anifeedsci.2007.06.006"},{"key":"bibr4-0960327120968852","unstructured":"Desjardins AE.
