Development of Novel Liquid Chromatography-Electrospray Tandem Mass Spectrometry Approaches for the Structural Characterization of Brevetoxins Including in vitro Metabolites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Brevetoxins are natural neurotoxins that are produced by “red tide†algae. In this study, brevetoxin-1 and brevetoxin-2 were incubated with rat liver hepatocytes and rat liver microsomes, respectively.

Permeability of dihydro- and cysteine-brevetoxin metabolites across a Caco-2 cell monolayer

open access: yes, 2014
Brevetoxin B is a highly reactive molecule, due in part to an α,β-unsaturated aldehyde group at the terminal side chain, leading to metabolism by reduction, oxidation and conjugation. These reactions have little effect to reduce intrinsic activity at the

IDENTIFYING BIOMARKERS OF BREVETOXIN EXPOSURE IN THE NORTHERN QUAHOG METABOLOME WITH 1H NMR SPECTROSCOPY

open access: yes, 2023
The northern quahog (Mercenaria mercenaria Linnaeus, 1758) is heavily valued for its ability to filter excess nutrients from marine ecosystems, and as a delicacy in the shellfish aquaculture industry.

Brevenal and β-naphtoyl-brevetoxin abolishes ciguatoxin-evoked release of catecholamines.

open access: yes, 2013
Chromaffin cells were pre-treated (15 min) with increasing concentrations of either brevenal (A) or β-naphtoyl-brevetoxin (B) and subsequently exposed to indicated concentrations of P-CTX-1B, nicotine or vehicle alone as indicated in the figure, before ...

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

open access: yes
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.

Inhalation Toxicity of Brevetoxin 3 in Rats Exposed for Twenty-Two Days

open access: yes, 2005
Brevetoxins are potent neurotoxins produced by the marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis . Exposure to brevetoxins may occur during a K. brevis red tide when the compounds become aerosolized by wind and surf.

Sodium-dependent increase in quantal secretion induced by brevetoxin-3 in Ca2+-free medium is associated with depletion of synaptic vesicles and swelling of motor nerve terminals in situ

open access: yes, 1997
Brevetoxin-3 at nanomolar concentrations markedly enhanced spontaneous quantal transmitter release from neuromuscular junctions equilibrated in a Ca2+-free EGTA medium. After about 3 h, the sustained increase in miniature endplate potential frequency led

Brevetoxin: How Is It Made and Why [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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

Brevetoxin concentrations in various sample types from stranded bottlenose dolphins in the 2005/2006 UME.

open access: yes, 2012
Values (mean calculations of all available assay data) are reported in ng brevetoxin-3 equiv./g or ng/mL. Data are median, quartile, and minimum/maximum values indicated by the midline, box, and whisker lines; respectively.

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
