In vitro metabolism of T-2 toxin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Incubation of T-2 toxin with the 9,000 x g supernatant fluid of both human and bovine liver homogenate resulted in conversion to a single, deacetylated product identified as HT-2 toxin. Metabolism is more rapid in human liver. HT-2 toxin was not produced when human plasma was the incubating medium nor was it produced by treatment of T-2 toxin with simulated gastric juice. T-2 toxin was stable in gastric juice for at least 1 h.

Modification of in vitro metabolism of T-2 toxin by esterase inhibitors.
In vitro metabolism of T-2 toxin with S-9 fraction obtained from livers of phenobarbital-treated pigs and rats in the presence of different esterase inhibitors, including NaF, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, eserine sulfate, diisopropylfluorophosphate, and diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate, was studied. The metabolism was completely shifted to the hydroxylation at the C-3...
متن کاملThe roles of carboxylesterase and CYP isozymes on the in vitro metabolism of T-2 toxin
BACKGROUND T-2 toxin poses a great threat to human health because it has the highest toxicity of the currently known trichothecene mycotoxins. To understand the in vivo toxicity and transformation mechanism of T-2 toxin, we investigated the role of one kind of principal phase I drug-metabolizing enzymes (cytochrome P450 [CYP450] enzymes) on the metabolism of T-2 toxin, which are crucial to the ...
متن کاملIn vitro metabolism of T-2 toxin in rats.
T-2 toxin was rapidly converted in the 9,000 X g supernatant fraction of rat liver homogenate into HT-2 toxin, T-2 tetraol, and two unknown metabolites designated as TMR-1 and TMR-2. TMR-1 was characterized as 4-deacetylneosolaniol (15-acetoxy-3 alpha, 4 beta, 8 alpha-trihydroxy-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene) by spectroscopic analyses. Since the same metabolites were also obtained from HT-2 toxin...
متن کاملChicken Cytochrome P450 1A5 Is the Key Enzyme for Metabolizing T-2 Toxin to 3′OH-T-2
The transmission of T-2 toxin and its metabolites into the edible tissues of poultry has potential effects on human health. We report that T-2 toxin significantly induces CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 expression in chicken embryonic hepatocyte cells. The enzyme activity assays of CYP1A4 and CYP1A5 heterologously expressed in HeLa cells indicate that only CYP1A5 metabolizes T-2 to 3'OH-T-2 by the 3'-hydroxy...
متن کاملEffects of in vitro Brevetoxin Exposure on Apoptosis and Cellular Metabolism in a Leukemic T Cell Line (Jurkat)
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) of the toxic dinoflagellate, Karenia brevis, produce red tide toxins, or brevetoxins. Significant health effects associated with red tide toxin exposure have been reported in sea life and in humans, with brevetoxins documented within immune cells from many species. The objective of this research was to investigate potential immunotoxic effects of brevetoxins using a ...
