Development of Simultaneous Analytical Method of Three Polypeptide Toxins α-Amanitin, β-Amanitin and Phalloidin in Poisonous Mushrooms and Human Serum Using UHPLC-MS/MS. [PDF]
J Mass SpectromABSTRACT Accidental ingestion of toxic mushrooms remains a global public health concern because of the presence of highly potent peptide toxins such as α‐amanitin, β‐amanitin, and phalloidin. These compounds exhibit strong hepatotoxicity and can lead to acute liver failure and death.

Effect of Biliary Drainage on the Toxicity and Toxicokinetics of Amanita exitialis in Beagles
Toxins, 2018 Amatoxin poisoning induces delayed-onset acute liver failure, which are responsible for more than 90% of deaths in mushroom poisoning. It has been postulated from animal and human studies that biliary drainage interrupting enterohepatic amatoxin ...

Effect of gut microbiota on α‐amanitin tolerance in Drosophila tripunctata
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The bacterial gut microbiota of many animals is known to be important for many physiological functions including detoxification. The selective pressures imposed on insects by exposure to toxins may also be selective pressures on their symbiotic bacteria,
