This study reports on the tumorigenicity of citrinin, a nephrotoxic mycotoxin. Male F344 rats were fed 0.1% citrinin in the diet for up to 80 weeks. The first renal tumor was seen grossly in a rat receiving citrinin which was killed at week 52. Histopathology of the kidneys showed renal adenomas in 35 of 48 (72.9%) rats that survived after 40 weeks. No renal tumors were seen in the control rats.
本研究报告了肾毒性霉菌毒素桔青霉素的致瘤性。将0.1%的桔青霉素添加到雄性F344大鼠的饮食中,持续喂养长达80周。在第52周处死的一只接受桔青霉素喂养的大鼠中,肉眼首次观察到肾脏肿瘤。对40周后存活的48只大鼠中的35只(72.9%)进行肾脏组织病理学检查,发现有肾腺瘤。在对照大鼠中未观察到肾脏肿瘤。
