Molecular Mechanism of Ochratoxin A Transport in the Kidney
The mycotoxin, ochratoxin A (OTA), is thought to be responsible for Balkan endemic nephropathy. OTA accumulates in several tissues, especially in the kidneys and liver. The excretion of OTA into urine is thought to be mainly by tubular secretion, presumably via the organic anion transport system. Recently, several families of multispecific organic anion transporters have been identified: organi...
متن کاملA Review: Epigenetic Mechanism in Ochratoxin A Toxicity Studies
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a natural contaminant that has displayed nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in mammals. It contaminates a great variety of foodstuffs and threatens people's lives. The molecular mechanism of OTA-induced toxicity has been studied since 1965. Moreover, epigenetic mechanisms are also studied in OTA-induced toxicity. Additionally, the mode of OTA epigenetic research has been ad...
متن کاملMechanism of neurotoxicity of cardiotonic glycosides.
1 In cats intracerebroventricular administration of 5, 10, 20 mug of peruvoside, a cardiac glycoside obtained from the plant, Thevetia neriifolia, and 10 and 20 mug of ouabain, produced marked neurotoxicity. This was dose-related. 2 Prior administration reserpine (2 mg/kg i.m., 500 mug i.c.v.) or tetrabenazine (25 mg/kg i.v., 50 mg/kg i.v. and 2 mg/,g i.c.v.) suppressed the neurotoxicity, but l...
متن کاملA mechanism of sulfite neurotoxicity: direct inhibition of glutamate dehydrogenase.
Exposure of Neuro-2a and PC12 cells to micromolar concentrations of sulfite caused an increase in reactive oxygen species and a decrease in ATP. Likewise, the biosynthesis of ATP in intact rat brain mitochondria from the oxidation of glutamate was inhibited by micromolar sulfite. Glutamate-driven respiration increased the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and this was abolished by sulfite...
متن کاملOccurrence of Ochratoxin A in Grape Juice of Iran
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is one of the most important mycotoxins that contaminate a broad range of agricultural and food products. In this study, the occurrence of OTA in available brands of grape juice in Iran purchased from retail outlets or producer were determined for the first time using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with immunoaffinity columns(IAC) as the clean-up step. The aver...
