Our previous studies showed intragastric administration of Aflatoxin G(1) (AFG(1)) could induce lung adenocarcinoma, which derived from alveolar type II cells (AT-II cells). AT-II cells contribute to Aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1)) metabolism and also serve as the potential progenitor cells for

Aflatoxins have been shown to be hepatotoxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic to different species of animals. Besides, at low concentrations, Selenium (Se(4+)) is antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic while it is toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic at high concentrations. In this study, we

In aflatoxin biosynthesis, aflatoxins G(1) (AFG(1)) and B(1) (AFB(1)) are independently produced from a common precursor, O-methylsterigmatocystin (OMST). Recently, 11-hydroxy-O-methylsterigmatocystin (HOMST) was suggested to be a later precursor involved in the conversion of OMST to AFB(1), and conversion of HOMST

To explore the effect of AFG1 on the expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA-I) molecule in human esophageal epithelial cells. Western Blot and RT-PCT analysis was used to explore the effect of AFG1 on the antigen presenting function of primary

Different local and exported white cheese samples were collected from different markets in Jeddah during September 2008. Trace and heavy metals including Pb, Zn, Mn, Cu, Fe and Cd were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrometry. The concentration of the tested
