Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by filamentous fungi. Primary route of human exposure to mycotoxins is the intake of the contaminated food. Minimizing mycotoxin exposure is important for population health, as their chronic toxic effects have been associated with kidney

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi that can cause adverse health effects. Due to climate change, temperatures are expected to rise and changes in rainfall patterns are foreseen. These developments may increase fungal occurrence and mycotoxin concentrations in maize.

Tricothecene mycotoxins, such as nivalenol, are toxic to leukocytes. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of nivalenol toxicity, we investigated the involvement of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in nivalenol-induced cytotoxicity in HL60 cells using the NF-κB inhibitors pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC) and dexamethasone. Cells

Rapid and sensitive methods to detect Fusarium culmorum and trichothecene and zearalenone producing strains in food and feed are valuable in predicting potential contamination. In this study the effectiveness of primers, recommended in the literature, for species identification of F.
To investigate the effects of 3 mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NIV) and T-2 toxin, in the presence and absence of selenium (Se) on the metabolism of tissue-engineered cartilage to mimic conditions found in Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) environments. Chondrocytes were seeded
