424:. In 1973, PR toxin was first partially characterized by isolating moldy corn on which the fungi had grown. Although its lethal dose was determined shortly after the isolation of the chemical, details of its toxic effects were not fully clarified until 1982 in a study with mice, rats, anesthetized cats and preparations of isolated rat
456:. The aldehyde group on C-12 is directly involved in the biological activity as removal leads to inactivation of the compound. The two epoxide groups do not play an important role, as removal showed no difference in activity. When exposed to air, PR toxin may decompose. How and why this happens, is however not known.
648:
The PR toxin dysfunctions the transcriptional process in the liver. RNA polymerases I & II, the two main RNA polymerase systems in the liver, are affected by the toxin. The toxin needs no further enzymatic conversion to exert its effects on these systems. The liver seems to be the most influenced
717:
In conclusion, the tissue cells and blood vessels were directly damaged by PR toxin. This caused leakage of fluid resulting among other things in edema of the lungs and ascites fluid. Also, the damage on the blood vessels resulted in increased capillary permeability. This increased permeability lead

Multiple experiments have shown the different effects of PR toxin: it can cause damage to the liver and kidney, can induce carcinogenicity, and can in vivo inhibit DNA replication, protein synthesis, and transcription. Most experiments on the effect of the PR toxin focus on the inhibition of protein

wasn't the determining factor, the inhibition was not decreased by increasing the amount of polysomes. The increase of pH 5 enzymes on the other hand, had a significant inhibitory effect. A higher concentration of pH 5 enzymes made the inhibitory effect less effective. These findings proved that the

The toxicity of PR toxin was measured both intraperitoneally as well as orally. The first determined median lethal dose of pure PR toxin intraperitoneal in weanling rats was 11 mg/kg. The oral median lethal dose was 115 mg/kg. The same study reported that ten minutes after an oral dose of

The process did not alter the uptake of amino acids in the liver, but the translational process was exclusively affected. The toxic effect of this toxin is as expected close with the fact that the process of protein synthesis is inhibited. However the real toxic effect could be that some required
572:
The PR toxin caused an inhibition of the incorporation of amino acids. These results show that the toxin was responsible for altering the translating process. Together with some earlier experiments it has been proved that the PR toxin was indeed active on the cell metabolism. Another interesting

The effects were different for the different ways PR toxin was taken up. When the median lethal dose was ingested orally, the pathology was described as swollen-gas filled stomach and intestines as well as edema and congestion in the lungs. The kidney showed degenerative changes as well as

An acute human study has yet to be done, so no LD50 test results or doses are known yet. However, there is one case report from 1982 in which toxic effects are described on a human. This person was working in a factory in which the blue cheese was produced. The mold of

Studies of the effects on animals were done on mice, rats, anesthetized cats and preparations of isolated rat auricle. Toxic effects in mice and rats included abdominal writhing, decrease of motor activity and respiration rate, weakness of the hind legs and ataxia.
589:
When the PR toxin was directly administered to rats, protein synthesis in the liver was not as high as it normally would be. This in vivo administration showed that the isolated cells from the rat's liver had a much lower transcriptional capacity.
