Ochratoxin A (OTA) is an ubiquitous mycotoxin suspected to cause fibrotic kidney diseases. The involvement of mircoRNAs in these processes is unknown. Here, we investigated the role of the anti-fibrotic miR-29b in OTA-induced alterations of cellular collagen homeostasis.OTA exposure of human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293) cells led to an increase of collagen I, III and IV protein amounts without...
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin produced by several fungi which grow on human food source material. Consumption of OTA is almost unavoidable. The consumption leads to low but detectable amounts of OTA in human blood. Risk assessment of OTA is based on studies performed either in animals or cultured cells. So far, mainly cell lines of different origin were used. To be as close as possible to the...
