“…The experience of the writers who first botanically described Satan's honey and tasted food from it does not prove that its consumption was without risk (Bezděk, 1901). Similar results have been reported by later work (Edwards and Henry, 1989;Köppel, 1993;Pore, 1993; Schenk-Jaeger et al, 2012).…”

SummaryRubroboletus satanas (Lenz) Kuan Zhao & Zhu L. Yang, known as Boletus satanas (Lenz) until 2014, and commonly known as the Devil's bolete or Satan's bolete, is a basidiomycete mushroom of the bolete family. Grows in mixed woodlands in the southern, warmer regions of Europe and North America. Satan's bolete generally regarded as a poisonous mushroom, with predominantly gastrointestinal symptoms of nausea and violent vomiting occurring if eaten raw or isufficiently heat-treated. The toxicity of the mushroom corresponds to a toxic protein called bolesatine. Bolesatine is a toxic glycoprotein which has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in cell-free systems and cell culture and is toxic to rodents. Biology, chemistry, pharmacology and toxicology of bolesatine is discussed in this article.

Approximately 100 of the known species of mushrooms are poisonous to humans. New toxic mushroom species continue to be identified. Some species initially classified as edible are later reclassified as toxic. This results in a continually expanding list of toxic mushrooms. As new toxic species are identified, some classic teachings about mycetism no longer hold true. As more toxic mushrooms are identified and more toxic syndromes are reported, older classification systems fail to effectively accommodate mycetism. This review provides an update of myscetism and classifies mushroom poisonings by the primary organ system affected, permitting expansion, as new, toxic mushroom species are discovered.
