The effects of the mycotoxin citrinin on renal cortical and liver mitochondrial swelling were studied. Citrinin decreases the rate of swelling induced by the valinomycin-K+ complex, suggesting that the mycotoxin interferes with the mitochondrial membrane fluidity. Citrinin promotes reduction of the
The inhibition by citrinin (CTN) of lipid peroxidation of mitochondria, sub-mitochondrial particles (SMP) and microsomes was studied. This eect was reversed by the presence of high concentrations of Fe 3 (0 . 4 and 0 . 5 mM), suggesting chelation of the mycotoxin with iron or interference in the red
The eects of citrinin in the maintenance of the homeostasis of the reactive oxygen species in rat liver cells were evaluated. Citrinin (CTN) modiยฎes the antioxidant enzymatic defences of cells through the inhibition of GSSGreductase and transhydrogenase. No eect was observed on GSH-peroxidase, catal
