text:
4-Ipomeanol (4-IPO) is a pulmonary pre-toxin isolated from sweet potatoes infected with the fungus Fusarium solani. One of the 4-IPO metabolites is toxic to the lungs, liver and kidney in humans and animals. This metabolite can covalently bind to proteins, thereby interfering with normal cell processes. The toxic metabolite, an enedial, is mostly formed in the bronchiolar exocrine cells in the lungs of rodents. Necrosis of bronchiolar cells is therefore the primary damaging effect of the toxin,
