Product Description
Fumonisin B1 is produced by the strain of Gibberella fujikuroi and Fumarium moniliforme. It is a liver toxin, which can activate the cancer promoter and cause liver cancer. It has been reported that it is related to the occurrence of human esophageal cancer in South Africa and other places. It can also cause pig pulmonary edema, and is also the pathogenic substance of equine leukoencephalitis. Fumonisin B1 inhibits sphingosine acyltransferase.

Carcinogenicity | 2B, possibly carcinogenic to humans. |
Mechanism Of Toxicity | Fumonisins are similar in structure to the long-chain base backbones of sphingolipids, allowing it to inhibit of the biosynthesis of sphingosine and more complex sphingolipids by inhibiting the enzyme ceramide synthase. This causes the accumulation of sphinganine, sphingosine, and possibly also sphingosine 1-phosphate in cells and tissues, leading to apoptosis. Mycotoxins are often able to enter the liver and kidney by human organic anion transporters (hOATs) and human organic cation transporters (hOCTs). They can also inhibit uptake of anions and cations by these transporters, interefering with the secretion of endogenous metabolites, drugs, and xenobiotics including themselves. This results in increased cellular accumulation of toxic compounds causing nephro- and hepatotoxicity. |
