Amatoxin Intoxication

Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 1990
Ingestion of mushrooms followed after 6-12 hours by gastrointestinal symptoms and after 3-4 days by hepatic symptoms is diagnostic for the life-threatening amatoxin intoxication and should be treated as soon as possible. Four case histories are reported and recommendations for treatment are given.

Toxicokinetics of labeled amatoxins in the dog

Archives of Toxicology, 1985
Radioactivities were measured in serum, urine, and bile of dogs at different times after intravenous injection of 14C-methyl-gamma-amanitin (14C-A) and 3H-O-methyl-dehydroxymethyl-alpha-amanitin (3H-A). For either substance, the relation between the specific plasma activity C and the time t could be best described with the function C = C1 X e- lambda 1

Comment on “N-acetylcysteine as a treatment for amatoxin poisoning”

Clinical Toxicology, 2020
We would like to thank Liu and colleagues for their investigation into the benefit of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) as a treatment for cyclopeptide containing mushroom toxicity [1].

[125I]Amatoxin and anti-amatoxin for radioimmunoassay prepared by a novel approach: Chemical and structural considerations

Toxicon, 1987
A novel approach for the production of [125I]amatoxin and anti-amanitin is described. The antigen and the starting material for Bolton Hunter iodination is prepared by periodic acid oxidation of the gamma-delta-dihydroxy-isoleucine side chain of alpha-amanitin followed by reductive amination. The antigen seems to be of low apparent toxicity.

Amatoxins in wood-rottingGalerina marginata

Mycologia, 2004
Amatoxins, bicyclic octapeptide derivatives responsible for severe hepatic failure, are present in several Basidiomycota species belonging to four genera, i.e. Amanita, Conocybe, Galerina and Lepiota. DNA studies for G. autumnalis, G. marginata, G. oregonensis, G. unicolor and G.

Conformations of amatoxins in the crystalline state

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1989
The amatoxins consist of a family of bicyclic octapeptides present in the poisonous mushroom Amanita phalloides and their synthetic derivatives. The crystal structures of the slightly toxic (S)-sulfoxide isomer of o-methyl-a-amanitin (7) and the highly toxic O-methyl-S-oxo-a-amanitin (8) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction ...

Amatoxine und Knollenbl�tterpilzvergiftung

Naturwissenschaften, 1979
Amatoxins are the sole cause of human Amanita poisoning, inhibition of transcription eventually leading to cell necrosis. The toxins are easily excreted into the bile fluid, a fact which postulates the interruption of the enterohepatic circulation. All therapeutic means should be applied in order to decrease the serum concentration of the toxins as ...

Mushrooms, amatoxins and the liver

Journal of Hepatology, 2005
Acute liver failure (ALF) due to mushrooms containing amatoxins is relatively rare. In a survey of ALF in Spain, only 10 out of 267 cases (4%) were caused by amatoxins (pending publication). Amatoxin poisoning is a world wide problem: 50–100 fatal cases are reported yearly in Western Europe, being less common in the United States with fewer than 100 ...

A fatal poisoning from an amatoxin containing Lepiota

Mycopathologia, 1986
The mushroom Lepiota josserandii Bon and Boif. has been identified as the cause of an unintentional, fatal intoxication in New York. The course of the symptoms, beginning with a 9 h latent period, was similar to what would be expected in a case of Amanita phalloides-type intoxication.
