Descriptor English: Aflatoxin M1
Descriptor Spanish: Aflatoxina M1
Descriptor aflatoxina M1
Entry term(s) aflatoxina M(1)
Scope note: Metabolito 4-hidroxilado de la AFLATOXINA B1, una de las MICOTOXINAS de los alimentos contaminados por ASPERGILLUS. Está asociado con lesiones hepáticas y cáncer de HÍGADO resultantes de la activación del P450 al epóxido que alquila el ADN. La toxicidad depende del equilibrio entre las enzimas hepáticas que lo activan (CITOCROMO P-450) y otras que lo contrarrestan (GLUTATIÓN S- TRANSFERASA) (Pharmac Ther 50.443 1991). Los primates y la rata son sensibles, mientras que el ratón y el hámster lo toleran (Canc Res 29.236 1969).

Scope note: A 4-hydroxylated metabolite of AFLATOXIN B1, one of the MYCOTOXINS from ASPERGILLUS tainted food. It is associated with LIVER damage and cancer resulting from its P450 activation to the epoxide which alkylates DNA. Toxicity depends on the balance of liver enzymes that activate it (CYTOCHROME P-450) and others that detoxify it (GLUTATHIONE S TRANSFERASE) (Pharmac Ther 50.443 1991). Primates & rat are sensitive while mouse and hamster are tolerant (Canc Res 29.236 1969).
