Abstract: Deoxynivalenol (DON), is one of the common mycotoxins that contaminate grain, feed and food, which seriously affects the health of humans and livestock. Pigs are very sensitive to DON, which can cause toxic effects such as antifeeding, growth inhibition, vomiting, organ damage, cytotoxicity, and immunotoxicity to pigs. The toxic effects, toxicological mechanisms and antidote development of DON on pigs were reviewed in this paper. Specially, the genetic regulation of the toxicological effects of DON was concerned, which aimed to provide more comprehensive references for improving the resistance of pigs to deoxynivalenol from genetic nature.

Key words: pig, deoxynivalenol, toxic effect, toxicological mechanism, antidote, genetic regulation
