Comparison of murine anorectic responses to the 8-ketotrichothecenes 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol, fusarenon X and nivalenol

► We compare the anorectic effects of 3-ADON, 15- ADON, NIV, FX to those of DON. ► Like DON, 3-ADON and 15-ADON induce transient anorexia. ► FX and NIV induce much longer, persistent anorectic effects than DON or the ADONs. ► IP exposures to trichothecenes provoke stronger anorectic responses than do oral exposures.
