“…In poultry, gossypol reduces egg production rate, causes yolk discoloration, and slows down growth, leading to weight loss and cachexia (Abou‐Donia, 1976). Conversely, gossypol exhibits anti‐fertility (El‐Sharaky et al, 2010), anti‐inflammatory (Chen et al, 2018; Liu et al, 2013), antioxidant (Beyazit et al, 2020), antitumor (Liu et al, 2020), antiviral (Gao, Tai, et al, 2019; Li et al, 2016), and antimalarial (Yuan et al, 2023) activities. Following these inhibitory effects, gossypol has become a leading drug bioactive substance, currently being explored for its pharmaceutical potential.…”
