Ochratoxins are a group of mycotoxins produced by a variety of moulds. Ochratoxin A (OTA),
the most prominent member of this toxin family, was first described by van der Merwe et al. in …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin involved in the development of different types of cancers
in rats, mice and humans. A growing number of in vitro and in vivo studies has been …

With the release of the landmark report Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century: A Vision and a
Strategy, the US National Academy of Sciences, in 2007, precipitated a major change in the …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a well-known nephrotoxic and potential carcinogenic agent but no
consensus about the molecular mechanisms underlying its deleterious effects has been …

Vitis vinifera (grape) is one of the “most‐produced fruit” in the world. Grape seeds are a
valuable source of phenolic compounds including resveratrol (RSV). Grape and one of its …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin occurring in a wide range of food products. Because of
the limitation of human epidemiological data, the safety significance of OTA in food has to …

Evidence for the role of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of mycotoxin-related illness
is increasing. The glutathione antioxidant and detoxification systems play a major role in the …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is nephrotoxic and a potent renal carcinogen. Male rats are most
susceptible to OTA toxicity, and chronic administration of OTA (70 and 210 μg/kg bw) for 2 …

Ochratoxin A (OTA) and citrinin (CTN) are important mycotoxins, which often coexist in food
and feed stuff. In this study, individual and combinative cytotoxicity of OTA and CTN were …

The in vitro and in vivo evidence compatible with a role for oxidative stress in OTA
