Contamination with fumonisin B1 (FB1) represents a global health problem. FB1 exposure may also trigger intestinal injury by activating inflammatory responses, leading to a reduction in production performance and economic benefits. However, the mechanism of FB1-induced intestinal inflammatory injury is still unclear. At the same time, it is urgent to develop antibiotic alternatives and therapeutic targets to alleviate antibiotic resistance and to ensure effective treatment of intestinal inflammatory injury. We combined network pharmacology and in vitro experiments to explore the core therapeutic targets and potential mechanism of luteolin in FB1-induced intestinal inflammatory injury. Network pharmacology and molecular docking revealed that nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and IL-1ß are the important targets, and the NF-κB and ERK signalling pathways are critical in FB1-induced intestinal inflammatory injury. Besides, in vitro experiments further demonstrated that luteolin can inhibit FB1-induced intestinal inflammatory injury by inhibiting activation of the NF-κB and ERK signalling pathways and reducing the expression of IL-6 and IL-1ß in IPEC-J2 cells. We have comprehensively illustrated the potential targets and molecular mechanism by which luteolin can alleviate FB1-induced intestinal inflammatory injury. Luteolin may be an effective antibiotic alternative to prevent intestinal inflammatory injury.
