Metabolomics Approach to Reveal the Effects of Ocean Acidification on the Toxicity of Harmful Microalgae: A Review of the Literature

open access: yesAppliedChem, 2023
Climate change has been associated with intensified harmful algal blooms (HABs). Some harmful microalgae produce toxins that accumulate in food webs, adversely affecting the environment, public health and economy.

Total Synthesis of Brevetoxin-B

open access: yes, 2016
Brevetoxin-B (BTX-B), produced by the red tide organism, Gymnodium breve Davis, is the first member of marine polycyclic ethers to be structurally elucidated and one of the most potent neurotoxins. The structural feature is a trans-fused polycyclic ether

Brevetoxin: How Is It Made and Why

open access: yes, 2012
Karenia brevis is the major harmful algal bloom-forming species in the Gulf of Mexico, and produces neurotoxins, known as brevetoxins, that cause large fish kills, neurotoxic shellfish poisoning, and human respiratory distress. Brevetoxins are polyethers

Harmful algal blooms in the Gulf of Mexico : brevetoxin degradation and derivation formation via photochemical processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Harmful algal blooms (HAB’s) of the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis (Gymnodinium breve) are recurring events in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) which have significant adverse human health, environmental and economic impacts.

Scientific Opinion on marine biotoxins in shellfish – Emerging toxins: Brevetoxin group

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2010
The EFSA Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM Panel) assessed the risks to human health related to the consumption of brevetoxin‐(BTX) group toxins in shellfish and fish.

Chemiluminescent Receptor Binding Assay for Ciguatoxins and Brevetoxins Using Acridinium Brevetoxin-B2

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Ciguatera is the term for poisoning resulting from eating fish from tropical or subtropical regions. The causative toxins collectively named ciguatoxins (CTXs) widely differ in structures depending on their geographic origins, which range from the ...

Brevetoxin Body Burdens in Seabirds of Southwest Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Harmful algal blooms (HABs, or red tides ) of the brevetoxin-producing dinoflagellate Karenia brevis occur periodically along Florida\u27s Gulf coast. Mass mortalities of marine birds have long been associated with these blooms, yet there are few data ...

Effects of in vitro Brevetoxin Exposure on Apoptosis and Cellular Metabolism in a Leukemic T Cell Line (Jurkat)

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2008
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) of the toxic dinoflagellate, Karenia brevis, produce red tide toxins, or brevetoxins. Significant health effects associated with red tide toxin exposure have been reported in sea life and in humans, with brevetoxins documented

Effect of Brevetoxin and Brevetoxin ANtagonists on Jurkat E6-1 Cell Proliferation, Survival, and Gene Expression

open access: yes, 2008
Brevetoxins (PbTx) are potent lipid soluble polyether neurotoxins produced by the marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, an organism linked to periodic red tide blooms.
