摘要：

Mycotoxins induce diverse and powerful biological effects in test systems; some are carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, estrogenic, hemorrhagic, immunotoxic, nephrotoxic, hepatotoxic, dermotoxic, and neurotoxic. Mycotoxins have been unambiguously linked to the etiology of several diseases in animals. The discovery of aflatoxins in the early 1960s led to the resurgence of interest in human mycotoxicoses; mycotoxins are now recognized as causal cancer. ergotism and alimentary toxic aleukia. The fumonisins and ochratoxins are suspected of playing a role in the etiology of esophageal cancer and Balkan endemic nephrotoxicity, respectively.
