摘要
Fumonisin B-1 (FB1) and aminopentol (AP(1)) (which is formed by hydrolysis of FB1) are found in corn contaminated with some strains of Fusarium moniliforme. Incubation of HT29 cells (a human colonic cell line) with FB1 or AP(1) caused a significant reduction in cell number; AP(1) was less potent, with 50 mu M AP(1) causing the same reduction (ca. 30% after 24 h) as 10 mu M FB1. The reduction in cell number reflected increases in DNA fragmentation and the percentage of apoptotic cells. Both FB1 and AP(1) caused the accumulation of sphinganine (25- and 35-fold by 10 mu M FB1 and 50 mu M AP(1), respectively); thus, concentrations of FB1 and AP(1) that caused comparable reductions in cell number were also similar with respect to elevation of sphinganine, a compound that is growth inhibitory and cytotoxic. Inhibition of the first step of sphingolipid biosynthesis with ISP-1 prevented the elevation in sphinganine, DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis induced by F-1. Therefore, these effects of FB1 on HT29 cells can be attributed to the accumulation of sphinganine. Since consumption of food contaminated with Fusarium moniliforme (Sheldon) exposes colonic cells to these mycotoxins, the possibility that FB1 and AP(1) are toxic for intestinal cells in vivo should be evaluated, especially in the light of the recent report (Bhat et al., Clin. Toxicol. 35, 249, 1997) describing intestinal disturbances in humans after consumption of moldy corn and sorghum containing fumonisins. (C) 1998 Academic Press.
