Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by various fungi which are frequently found in a wide variety of food items, thus causing a potential health risk. This Special Issue focuses on how mycotoxins act on a molecular level, including a range of toxic effects, and also discusses in which regard these toxic effects may be useful for the development of new chemical compounds in cancer therapy.
