showed a slightly significant increase in KBD areas than that in non-KBD areas separately. From the histogram, T-2 toxin accumulation was more serious in endemic areas, especially in wheat flour samples. In experimental studies, the T-2 toxin could induce damage of chondrocytes and cartilage, and inhibit cell proliferation by promoting apoptosis and catabolism as well as intracellular injuries, which is similar to the characteristics of KBD. In conclusion, the amount of T-2 toxin detected has a more significant influence on KBD prevalence and development as compared to the T-2 toxin detection rate. Besides, the T-2 toxin induces chondrocyte and cartilage damage through apoptosis, catabolism promotion and intracellular impairment, which is similar to the KBD change.
