Mitigation of Ergot Vasoconstriction by Clover Isoflavones in Goats (Capra hircus).

Frontiers in veterinary science

Aiken GE, Flythe MD, Kagan IA, Ji H, Bush LP.

Front Vet Sci. 2016 Mar 04;3:17. doi: 10.3389/fvets.2016.00017. eCollection 2016.

Ergot alkaloids produced by a fungal endophyte (Epichloë coenophiala; formerly Neotyphodium coenophialum) that infects tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) can induce persistent constriction of the vasculature in ruminants, hindering their capability to thermo-regulate core body temperature. There is evidence that...

Vasoconstrictive responses by the carotid and auricular arteries in goats to ergot alkaloid exposure.

A fungal endophyte (Neotyphodium coenophialum) infects most plants of "Kentucky 31" tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) and produces ergot alkaloids that cause persistent constriction of the vascular system in grazing livestock. Consequently, animals undergoing this toxicosis cannot regulate core body...

Tall fescue seed extraction and partial purification of ergot alkaloids.

Front Chem. 2014 Dec 11;2:110. doi: 10.3389/fchem.2014.00110. eCollection 2014.

Many substances in the tall fescue/endophyte association (Schedonorus arundinaceus/Epichloë coenophiala) have biological activity. Of these compounds only the ergot alkaloids are known to have significant mammalian toxicity and the predominant ergot alkaloids are ergovaline and ergovalinine. Because synthetically produced...

Identification and characterization of the ergochrome gene cluster in the plant pathogenic fungus .

RESULTS: This study identified the gene cluster responsible for the synthesis of the ergot pigments. Overexpression of the cluster-specific transcription factor led to activation of the gene cluster and to the production of several known ergot pigments. Knock out...

Bread, flour, infant formula and baby food samples (n=109, from which n=54 made of or containing rye), collected in 2001, 2003, and 2005, were analysed for ergot alkaloids. Samples were extracted using acidic conditions and the extracts subjected to...

As a contribution to the occurrence of ergot alkaloids in ergot from German rye and triticale, samples from the 2007 and 2008 harvests were analyzed. Twelve alkaloids-six pairs of main alkaloids and their corresponding epimers-were determined in extracts prepared...

Due to the exceptionally hot and dry summer in 2003 the ergot of that harvest was rather small and could only be separated from normal grain with increased efforts. Based on a clean-up procedure of Wolffet al. (1) and...
