Box 5003 NMBU, 1432 Ås, Norway; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors have contributed equally to this work. Abstract: Bacillus cereus is a ubiquitous soil bacterium responsible for two types of food-associated gastrointestinal diseases. While the emetic type, a food intoxication, manifests in nausea and vomiting, food infections with enteropathogenic strains cause diarrhea and abdominal pain. Causative toxins are the cyclic dodecadepsipeptide cereulide, and the proteinaceous enterotoxins hemolysin BL (Hbl), nonhemolytic enterotoxin (Nhe) and cytotoxin K (CytK), respectively. This review covers the current knowledge on distribution and genetic organization of the toxin genes, as well as mechanisms of enterotoxin gene regulation and toxin secretion. In this context, the exceptionally high variability of toxin production between single strains is highlighted. In addition, the mode of action of the pore-forming enterotoxins and their effect on target cells is described in detail. The main focus of this review are the two tripartite enterotoxin complexes Hbl and Nhe, but the latest findings on cereulide and CytK are also presented, as well as methods for toxin detection, and the contribution of further putative virulence factors to the diarrheal disease.

  • New Markers in the Mycotox Profile
    New Markers in the MycoTOX Profile We are happy to announce the addition of four new mycotoxin markers to our MycoTOX Profile. The test now includes 11 mycotoxins from 40 species of mold, making it by far the most comprehensive and competitively priced mycotoxin test available. It also still more sensitive and accurate than other tests available, because we use LC/MS/MS technology. Here is an overview of the four new mycotoxin markers: Gliotoxin Gliotoxin (GTX) is produced by the mold genus Aspergillus. Aspergillus spreads in the environment by releasing conidia which are capable of infiltrating the small alveolar airways of individuals. In order to evade the body’s defenses Aspergillus releases Gliotoxin to inhibit the immune system. One of the targets of Gliotoxin is PtdIns (3,4,5) P3. This results in the downregulation of phagocytic immune defense, which can lead to the exacerbation of polymicrobial infections. Gliotoxin impairs the activation of T-cells and induces apoptosis in monocytes and in monocyte-derived dendritic cells. These impairments can lead to multiple neurological syndromes. Mycophenolic Acid Mycophenolic Acid (MPA) produced by the Penicillium fungus. MPA is an immunosuppressant which inhibits the proliferation of B and T lymphocytes. MPA exposure can increase the risk of opportunistic infections such as Clostridia and Candida. MPA is associated with miscarriage and congenital malformations when the woman is exposed in pregnancy. Dihydrocitrinone Dihydrocitrinone is a metabolite of Citrinin (CTN), which is a mycotoxin that is produced by the mold species Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Monascus. CTN exposure can lead to nephropathy, because of its ability to increase permeability of mitochondrial membranes in the kidneys.

Currently, studies on the toxicology of fumonisins mainly focus on fumonisin B1 (FB1). Considering that FB1, fumonisin B2 (FB2) and fumonisin B3 (FB3) could coexist in food and feed, a study regarding a single toxin, FB1, may not completely reflect the toxicity of fumonisin. The gastrointestinal tract is usually exposed to these dietary toxins. In our study, the human gastric epithelial cell line (GES-1) was used as in vitro model to evaluate the toxicity of fumonisin. Firstly, we found that they could cause a decrease in cell viability, and increase in membrane leakage, cell death and the induction of expression of markers for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Their toxicity potency rank is FB1 > FB2 >> FB3. The results also showed that the synergistic effect appeared in the combinations of FB1 + FB2 and FB1 + FB3.

I could not have accomplished a paper in Science or completed my Ph. D. thesis work without their assistance and support. I practiced karate for eight years from elementary school through high school. At every promotion to a higher rank, my karate instructor would remind all the students that they did not make achievements alone and that they must “put all their ducks in a row” to thank all the people responsible helping us along our way. He would say that we should start by thanking the oldest living members of our families, our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents because, “if it wasn’t for our great-grandparents, our grandparents wouldn’t be here; and if it wasn’t for our grandparents, our parents wouldn’t be here; and if it wasn’t for our parents, we wouldn’t be here.” In such fashion, I will begin by thanking my oldest living relatives, my grandparents, Jack and Pauline Fites.

    J Sci Food Agric 1998, 77,1È17 Occurrence and Signiücance of Mycotoxins in Forage Crops and Silage: a Review Keith A Scudamore1* and Christopher T Livesey2 1 Central Science Laboratory, London Road, Slough, Berks, SL3 7HJ, UK 2 Veterinary Laboratories Agency, New Haw, Woodham Lane, Addlestone, Surrey, KT15 3NB, UK (Received 5 December 1996; revised version received 29 May 1997; accepted 4 September 1997) Abstract: Study of mycotoxins in animal feeding stu†s has concentrated on the occurrence of aÑatoxins and, to a lesser extent, other mycotoxins in cereals, raw materials and concentrate feeds. However, ruminant diets contain a high propor- tion of forage crops such as grass or maize silage, hay and straw. Under adverse growing, production or storage conditions, fungal spoilage is likely to occur with some degree of mycotoxin contamination. The mould Ñora of forage crops is likely to di†er signiÐcantly from that of cereals and mycotoxin contamination, should it occur, could di†er qualitatively and quantitatively. Information relating to forage crops as a potential source of mycotoxins is reviewed. Some Ðeld inci- dents and animal disease which may be mycotoxin related are discussed and analytical methods are reviewed. Information on dose and e†ect of candidate mycotoxins is given where available. The review suggests areas which the authors consider merit further study. Crown Copyright 1998.

Box1 | 3720 BA Bilthoven The Netherlands www.rivm.nl/en Page 2 of 42 RIVM letter report 2019-0210 Synopsis Risk assessment of Argyreia nervosa In the Netherlands, seeds from the plant Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Argyreia nervosa) are being sold as a so-called ‘legal high’ in smart shops and by internet retailers. The use of these seeds is unsafe. They can cause hallucinogenic effects, nausea, vomiting, elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure, (severe) fatigue and lethargy. These health effects can occur even when the seeds are consumed at the recommended dose. This is the conclusion of a risk assessment performed by RIVM. Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds are sold as raw seeds or in capsules. The raw seeds can be eaten as such, or after being crushed and dissolved in liquid (generally hot water).

  • Rope Parasite” the Rope Parasite Parasites: Nearly Every AuSC Child I Ever Treated Proved to Carry a Significant Parasite Burden
    Au#sm: 2015 Dietrich Klinghardt MD, PhD Infec4ons and Infestaons Chronic Infecons, Infesta#ons and ASD Infec4ons affect us in 3 ways: 1. Immune reac,on against the microbes or their metabolic products Treatment: low dose immunotherapy (LDI, LDA, EPD) 2. Effects of their secreted endo- and exotoxins and metabolic waste Treatment: colon hydrotherapy, sauna, intes4nal binders (Enterosgel, MicroSilica, chlorella, zeolite), detoxificaon with herbs and medical drugs, ac4vaon of detox pathways by solving underlying blocKages (methylaon, etc.) 3. Compe,,on for our micronutrients Treatment: decrease microbial load, consider vitamin/mineral protocol Lyme, Toxins and Epigene#cs • In 2000 I examined 10 au4s4c children with no Known history of Lyme disease (age 3-10), with the IgeneX Western Blot test – aer successful treatment. 5 children were IgM posi4ve, 3 children IgG, 2 children were negave. That is 80% of the children had clinical Lyme disease, none the history of a 4cK bite! • Why is it taking so long for au4sm-literate prac44oners to embrace the fact, that many au4s4c children have contracted Lyme or several co-infec4ons in the womb from an oVen asymptomac mother? Why not become Lyme literate also? • Infec4ons can be treated without the use of an4bio4cs, using liposomal ozonated essen4al oils, herbs, ozone, Rife devices, PEMF, colloidal silver, regular s.c injecons of artesunate, the Klinghardt co-infec4on cocKtail and more. • Symptomac infec4ons and infestaons are almost always the result of a high body burden of glyphosate, mercury and aluminum - against the bacKdrop of epigene4c injuries (epimutaons) suffered in the womb or from our ancestors( trauma, vaccine adjuvants, worK place related lead, aluminum, herbicides etc., electromagne4c radiaon exposures etc.) • Most symptoms are caused by a confused upregulated immune system (molecular mimicry) Toxins from a toxic environment enter our system through damaged boundaries and membranes (gut barrier, blood brain barrier, damaged endothelium, etc.).

  • Phoretic Analysis of Ergot Alkaloids. Relations Mobility in the Cle Vine
    Acta Pharm, Suecica 2, 357 (1965) Thin-layer chromatographic and thin-layer electro- phoretic analysis of ergot alkaloids.Relations between structure, RM value and electrophoretic mobility in the cle vine series STIG AGUREll DepartMent of PharmacOgnosy, Kunql, Farmaceuliska Insiitutei, StockhOLM, Sweden SUMMARY A thin-layer chromatographic and electrophoretic study of the ergot alkaloids has been made, to find rapid methods for the separation and identification of the known ergot alkaloids. The mobilities of ergot alkaloids in several useful chromatographic and electrophore- tic systems are recorded. Relations have been observed between structure and R" value in methanol-chloroform on Silica Gel G. A simple, rapid thin-layer electrophoretic technique has been de- vised for separation of ergot alkaloids, and a relation between structure and electrophoretic mobility is evident. Two-dimensional combinations of thin-layer chromatography and thin-layer electro- phoresis and chromatography are described. Numerous paper chromatographic procedures have been published for separation of the ergot alkaloids and their derivatives. Hofmann (1) and Genest & Farmilio (2) have recently listed these systems. The general advantages of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) over paper partition chromatography are well known: shorter time of equilibration and devel- opment, generally better resolution, smaller amounts of substance rc- quired, and wider choice of reagents. Several reports of TLC of ergot alkaloids have been published. In gene- ral, these investigations (2-6 and others) have dealt 'with limited groups of alkaloids, or with a specific problem involving at most a dozen of the 40 now known naturally occurring ergot alkaloids. Some paper chromate- .357 graphic systems using Iorrnamide-treated papers have also been adopted for thin-layer chromatographic use (7, 8).

  • Toxic Effects of Mycotoxins in Humans M
    Research Toxic effects of mycotoxins in humans M. Peraica,1 B. RadicÂ,2 A. LucicÂ,3 & M. Pavlovic 4 Mycotoxicoses are diseases caused by mycotoxins, i.e. secondary metabolites of moulds. Although they occur more frequently in areas with a hot and humid climate, favourable for the growth of moulds, they can also be found in temperate zones. Exposure to mycotoxins is mostly by ingestion, but also occurs by the dermal and inhalation routes. Mycotoxicoses often remain unrecognized by medical professionals, except when large numbers of people are involved. The present article reviews outbreaks of mycotoxicoses where the mycotoxic etiology of the disease is supported by mycotoxin analysis or identification of mycotoxin-producing fungi. Epidemiological, clinical and histological findings (when available) in outbreaks of mycotoxicoses resulting from exposure to aflatoxins, ergot, trichothecenes, ochratoxins, 3-nitropropionic acid, zearalenone and fumonisins are discussed.

Introduction baking of bread made with ergot-contaminated wheat, as well as to other ergot toxins and Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of moulds that hallucinogens, as well as belladonna alkaloids from exert toxic effects on animals and humans. The toxic mandragora apple, which was used to treat ergotism effect of mycotoxins on animal and human health is (3). While ergotism no longer has such important referred to as mycotoxicosis, the severity of which implications for public health, recent reports indicate depends on the toxicity of the mycotoxin, the extent that outbreaks of human mycotoxicoses are still of exposure, age and nutritional status of the possible (4).
