چکیده

Molds secrete over 400 different mycotoxins, all of which are toxic to all humans. Everyone in a mycotoxin contaminated environment will have fatigue and other systemic symptoms, but may write them off to other causes. Fatigue from mycotoxin exposure indicates multisystem systemic toxicity. Even individuals with no exaggerated immune response to fungal/mold/yeast antigens, and therefore showing no major acute symptoms, are being slowly poisoned every minute spent in a mold contaminated environment.

The pharmacology of beta-adrenergic blocking agents.

T HE endogenously released neurotransmitter substance, norepinephrine, or an injected sympathomimetic amine, ultimately exerts its actions on an organ system by combining with an area of the effector cell termed the adrenergic “receptor site.” That drugs and neural chemical mediators react with specific receptors in living tissues was suggested by Langley”” in 1905, who suggested that effector ...

Presence of postsynaptic alpha 2-adrenoreceptors of predominantly extrasynaptic location in the vascular smooth muscle of the dog hind limb.

1. In the autoperfused hind limb of the dog prazosin (10 microgram/kg intravenously) markedly antagonized responses to lumbar sympathetic stimulation, whereas responses to injected noradrenaline were largely unaffected. 2. In beta-adrenoreceptor- and ganglion-blocked animals, the hind limb pressor responses to phenylephrine were antagonized to a greater degree by prazosin than responses to inje...

Faces of a Changing Climate: Semi-Quantitative Multi-Mycotoxin Analysis of Grain Grown in Exceptional Climatic Conditions in Norway

Recent climatological research predicts a significantly wetter climate in Southern Norway as a result of global warming. Thus, the country has already experienced unusually wet summer seasons in the last three years (2010-2012). The aim of this pilot study was to apply an existing multi-analyte LC-MS/MS method for the semi-quantitative determination of 320 fungal and bacterial metabolites in No...

Endogenous toxins and mycotoxins in forage grasses and their effects on livestock.

Plant toxins are the chemical defenses of plants against herbivory. Grasses have relatively few intrinsic toxins, relying more on growth habit to survive defoliation and endophytic fungal toxins as chemical defenses. Forage grasses that contain intrinsic toxins include Phalaris spp. (tryptamine and carboline alkaloids), sorghums (cyanogenic glycosides), and tropical grasses containing oxalates ...

Role of zearalenone lactonase in protection of Gliocladium roseum from fungitoxic effects of the mycotoxin zearalenone.

Zearalenone is a mycotoxin with estrogenic effects on mammals that is produced by several species of Fusarium. We found that zearalenone and its derivatives inhibit the growth of filamentous fungi on solid media at concentrations of < or =10 microg/ml. The fungitoxic effect declined in the order zearalenone > alpha-zearalenol > beta-zearalenol. The mycoparasitic fungus Gliocladium roseum produc...
