Maternal fumonisin exposure as a risk factor for neural tube defects.

Advances in food and nutrition research - 1 Jan 2009

Gelineau-van Waes J, Voss K A, Stevens V L, Speer M C, Riley R T

Abstract excerpt

Fumonisins are mycotoxins produced by the fungus F. verticillioides, a common contaminant of maize (corn) worldwide. Maternal consumption of fumonisin B(1)-contaminated maize during early pregnancy has recently been associated with increased risk for neural tube defects (NTDs) in human populations that rely heavily on maize as a dietary staple. Experimental administration of purified fumonisin to mice early in...
