Toxic properties of Beauveria pigments on erythrocyte membranes.
The Beauveria pigments, tenellin, bassianin and oosporein, all inhibited total erythrocyte membrane ATPase activity in a dose-dependent manner by as much as 50% at 200 micrograms/ml. These pigments inhibited Ca(2+)-ATPases to a greater extent than Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity. The ATPase inhibitory activity for these pigments was not specific but was probably a consequence of membrane disruption, since pigments all caused alterations in erythrocyte morphology and promoted varying degrees of cell lysis.
