Mycotoxin. Natural contaminant of mouldy food and feed. It has a number of toxic effects, the most prominent being nephrotoxicity. Immunosuppressive, genotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic. Stimulates lipid peroxidation. Induces oxidative DNA lesions coupled with direct DNA adducts via quinone formation.
