Abstract
Abstract Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a widespread mycotoxin that naturally takes place in various human foodstuffs, such as cereals, cereal products, fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, dairy products, dried products, wine and even the infant formula. Thus, the generation of serious harm to human health is inevitable. Among a variety of toxicological effects of OTA, nephrotoxicity is the most prominent. Until present, the review focusing on the nephrotoxicity of OTA was absent. Therefore, the advances in research of nephrotoxicity, nephrotoxicity mechanisms and toxic antagonism of OTA were reviewed in the present paper.
期刊介绍:
Toxin Reviews provides an international forum for publishing state-of-the-art reviews and guest-edited single topic special issues covering the multidisciplinary research in the area of toxins derived from animals, plants and microorganisms. Our aim is to publish reviews that are of broad interest and importance to the toxinology as well as other life science communities. Toxin Reviews aims to encourage scientists to highlight the contribution of toxins as research tools in deciphering molecular and cellular mechanisms, and as prototypes of therapeutic agents. Reviews should emphasize the role of toxins in enhancing our fundamental understanding of life sciences, protein chemistry, structural biology, pharmacology, clinical toxinology and evolution. Prominence will be given to reviews that propose new ideas or approaches and further the knowledge of toxinology.
