T-2 mycotoxin Induces male germ cell apoptosis by ROS-mediated JNK/p38 MAPK pathway
T-2 mycotoxin, a type A trichothecene toxin that, specifically, causes male and female reproductive toxicity. We evaluated T-2 toxin toxicity in testes from neonatal testes after in vitro tissue cultured.

p38 mediates T-2 toxin-induced Leydig cell testosterone synthesis disorder
T-2 toxin is an unavoidable food and feed contaminant that seriously threatens human and animal health. Exposure to T-2 toxin can cause testosterone synthesis disorder in male animals, but the molecular mechanism is still not completely clear.

Survey for Fusaria That Elaborate T-2 Toxin [PDF]
Of the 136 strains of Fusarium examined, T-2 toxin was confirmed by thinlayer chromatography in 13 of the 21 extracts that inhibited either Rhodotorula rubra or Pencillium digitatum .

T-2 mycotoxin slows down the development of mouse blastocysts, decreases their blastomere number and increases chromatin damage [PDF]
The mycotoxin T-2 has many harmful effects on mammalian cells and reproductive functions. In the present study, the in vitro effect of T-2 toxin on mouse blastocysts was examined. Embryos were cultured in media supplemented with 0.5, 0.75 and 1 ng/ml T-2.

Effect of a Mycotoxin Binder (MMDA) on the Growth Performance, Blood and Carcass Characteristics of Broilers Fed Ochratoxin A and T-2 Mycotoxin Contaminated Diets [PDF]
The contamination of feed with mycotoxins is a global concern, resulting in adverse effects on productivity and animal health and, therefore, a great economic loss.

Using Multiscale Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Obtain Insights into Pore Forming Toxin Mechanisms [PDF]
Pore forming toxins (PFTs) are virulent proteins released by several species, including many strains of bacteria, to attack and kill host cells. In this article, we focus on the utility of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and the molecular insights gleaned from these techniques on the pore forming pathways of PFTs.

The role of mitochondria in T-2 toxin-induced human chondrocytes apoptosis. [PDF]
T-2 toxin, a mycotoxin produced by Fusarium species, has been shown to cause diverse toxic effects in animals and is also a possible pathogenic factor of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). The role of mitochondria in KBD is recognized in our recent research. The

Probing the interactions of ochratoxin B, ochratoxin C, patulin, deoxynivalenol, and T-2 toxin with human serum albumin [PDF]
Ochratoxins, patulin, deoxynivalenol, and T-2 toxin are mycotoxins, and common contaminants in food and drinks. Human serum albumin (HSA) forms complexes with certain mycotoxins.
