The prevalence of mycotoxins in Kashin-Beck disease [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics, 2001
Mycotoxins are naturally occurring toxic chemical compounds produced by fungi infesting agricultural crops both during their growth and storage. Such secondary metabolites, when ingested, can produce toxic syndromes in humans. As it has been suggested that mycotoxins might be involved in the development of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD), we undertook a ...

Kashin-Beck disease and iodine deficiency in Tibet [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics, 2001
We evaluated iodine and selenium status in 575 children between 5 and 15 years with Kashin-Beck disease from endemic and non-endemic areas. Of these 267 (46%) children had goiter. The proportion of subjects with goiter was higher in the villages with Kashin-Beck disease than in the control village. In the villages with Kashin-Beck disease, 105 (23%) of

Expression profile analysis of mycotoxin-related genes in cartilage with endemic osteochondropathy kashin-beck disease

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background Kashin-Beck Disease (KBD) is an endemic osteochondropathy. Mycotoxins are believed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of KBD. Because the molecular mechanism of mycotoxin-induced cartilage lesions remains unclear, there is not ...

Animal models of Kashin-Beck disease exposed to environmental risk factors: Methods and comparisons

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
The main etiological mechanism for Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is deep chondrocyte necrosis induced by environmental risk factors (ERFs). The scholars have conducted several epidemiological, cellular, and animal model studies on ERFs.

Integrating genome-wide DNA methylation and mRNA expression profiles identified different molecular features between Kashin-Beck disease and primary osteoarthritis

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteochondropathy of unknown etiology. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a form of degenerative joint disease sharing similar clinical manifestations and pathological changes to articular cartilage with KBD ...
