Description

Patulin is a mycotoxin that is produced by various species of fungi, including Aspergillus and Penicillium. Patulin can be found in various foods, such as apples, pears, and other fruit. Patulin has been shown to have acute toxicities that range from mild gastrointestinal effects to hemorrhagic colitis. Patulin also has the potential to cause clinical pathology, including liver injury and nephrotoxicity. It has been shown to be a response element for tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in vitro and in vivo. Natural compounds such as patulin may play an important role in the development of new drugs for the treatment of bowel disease or other inflammatory diseases.
