The mycotoxin alternariol induces DNA damage and modify macrophage phenotype and inflammatory responses [PDF]

Toxicology Letters, 2015
Alternariol (AOH), a mycotoxin produced by Alternaria fungi, is frequently found as a contaminant in fruit and grain products. Here we examined if AOH could modify macrophage phenotype and inflammatory responses. In RAW 264.7 mouse macrophages AOH changed the cell morphology of from round to star-shaped cells, with increased levels of CD83, CD86, CD11b,
