人类肝脏酶将T2-三线镰刀菌毒素脱乙酰化成HT2-三线镰刀菌毒素。
Human liver enzymes deacetylate T2-trichothecene to HT2-trichothecene in vitro.
The radioactivity of orally admin (3)H-T2-trichothecene (1 mg/kg body wt) to mice & rats was recovered in feces (55%) & urine (15%) within 72 hr. ... Analysis of the radioactivity recovered in feces of rats revealed that 2.7% of the dose was excreted as unchanged T2-trichothecene & 7.5% as 4-O-deacetylated T2-trichothecene (HT2-trichothecene)...the remaining fecal excretion products were not identified. In urine, HT2-trichothecene, representing 1.4% of the total dose & 8-hydroxydiacetoxyscirpenol (1.8%) were identified; 3 unidentified metabolites...were also isolated. The epoxide moeity...seems to be essential for its toxicological activity; the liver detoxifies T2-trichothecene, probably through epoxide hydrolase. In vitro, rat liver homogenate metabolizes T2-trichothecene to HT2-trichothecene, T2-trichothecene tetraol, 4-deacetylneosolaniol...& neosolaniol... The same metabolites were obtained from HT2-trichothecene, indicating that T2-trichothecene was preferentially hydrolyzed at the C-4 position to give NT2-trichothecene.
Trichothecenes are sesquiterpenoid toxins produced by Fusarium species. Since these mycotoxins are very stable, there is interest in microbial transformations that can remove toxins from contaminated grain or cereal products. Twenty-three yeast species assigned to the Trichomonascus clade (Saccharomycotina, Ascomycota), including four Trichomonascus species and 19 anamorphic species presently classified in Blastobotrys, were tested for their ability to convert the trichothecene T-2 toxin to less-toxic products. These species gave three types of biotransformations: acetylation to 3-acetyl T-2 toxin, glycosylation to T-2 toxin 3-glucoside, and removal of the isovaleryl group to form neosolaniol. Some species gave more than one type of biotransformation. Three Blastobotrys species converted T-2 toxin into T-2 toxin 3-glucoside, a compound that has been identified as a masked mycotoxin in Fusarium-infected grain. This is the first report of a microbial whole-cell method for producing trichothecene glycosides, and the potential large-scale availability of T-2 toxin 3-glucoside will facilitate toxicity testing and development of methods for detection of this compound in agricultural and other products.
The mycotoxin T-2 toxin, produced by various Fusarium species, is a widespread contaminant of grain and grain products. Knowledge about its toxicity and metabolism in the human body is crucial for any risk assessment as T-2 toxin can be detected in processed and unprocessed food samples. Cell culture studies using cells of human origin represent a potent model system to study the metabolic fate of T-2 toxin as well as the cytotoxicity in vitro. In this study the metabolism of T-2 toxin was analyzed in a cell line derived from human colon carcinoma cells (HT-29) and primary human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (RPTEC) using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with Fourier transformation mass spectrometry (HPLC-FTMS). Both cell types metabolized T-2 toxin to a variety of compounds. Furthermore, cell cycle analysis in RPTEC proved the apoptotic effect of T-2 toxin and its metabolites HT-2 toxin and neosolaniol in micromolar concentrations.
Evaluation: No data were available on the carcinogenicity to humans of toxins derived from Fusarium sporotrichioides. There is limited evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of T-2 toxin. Overall evaluation: Toxins derived from Fusarium sporotrichiodes are not classifiable as to their carcinogenicity to humans (Group 3).

Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of dietary fibers on T-2 toxicosis in rats. Weanling rats were fed varying levels of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and pectin with and without T-2 toxin (3 ug/g feed) for 2 weeks. Only lignin showed promise of overcoming feed refusal and growth depression in animals fed T-2 toxin. Further experiments feeding alfalfa meal (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25%) with and without T-2 toxin indicated that this lignin-rich feedstuff could largely overcome feed refusal and growth depression caused by the toxin. There was no effect of diet, however, on the activity of hepatic esterase, the enzyme believed to catabolize T-2 toxin. Rats were fed diets containing 0, 5, 12.5 or 20% alfalfa for 2 weeks and then dosed orally with [(3)H]T-2 toxin. Dietary alfalfa increased fecal excretion of 3H, whereas urinary excretion was unaffected. Residual (3)H in kidney and muscle was reduced with alfalfa feeding when [(3)H]T-2 toxin was administered orally. Residual (3)H in the digesta in the intestinal lumen increased. Alfalfa feeding was found to reduce intestinal transit time. It was concluded that the feeding of alfalfa reduced T-2 toxicosis in rats by binding the toxin in the intestinal lumen thereby promoting fecal excretion.
