The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 64, Issue 35, August 25, 2025.
Tetrodotoxin is best known as the poison of the pufferfish, which is a delicacy in Japanese cuisine. Its toxicity arises from the selective blockage of NaV channels, which is depicted for the NaV1.7 pore, highlighting the DEKA motif, which permeates sodium ions.

Opinion of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the risks to human health associated with the proliferation of Ostreopsis spp. on the Basque coast

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract In France, the presence of marine microalgae of the genus Ostreopsis has been identified repeatedly on the Mediterranean coast for several years, whereas on the French Basque coasts its presence is much more recent. In the summers of 2021 and 2022, major Ostreopsis flowering episodes were reported on the Basque coast, resulting in several ...

Further Insights into Brevetoxin Metabolism by de Novo Radiolabeling

Toxins, 2014
The toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, responsible for early harmful algal blooms in the Gulf of Mexico, produces many secondary metabolites, including potent neurotoxins called brevetoxins (PbTx).

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

AppliedChem, 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.

Impact of Hurricane Ian (2022) on Karenia brevis Bloom on the West Florida Shelf

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 6, 28 March 2025.
Abstract Blooms of toxigenic Karenia brevis are a major concern to public health and marine ecosystems on the West Florida Shelf. Hurricanes and tropical storms can discharge huge amounts of terrestrial nutrients into coastal oceans over a short time and have been linked to large plankton blooms, but the underlying mechanisms for the bloom generation ...

Effectors of thioredoxin reductase: Brevetoxins and manumycin-A

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Toxicology & Pharmacology, 2019
The activities of two effectors, brevetoxin (PbTx) and manumycin-A (Man-A), of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) have been evaluated against a series of fourteen TrxR orthologs originating from mammals, insects and protists and several mutants. Man-A, a molecule with numerous electrophilic sites, forms a covalent adduct with most selenocystine (Sec ...

Identification of a Rapid Detoxification Mechanism for Brevetoxin in Rats [PDF]

Toxicological Sciences, 2005
We examined detoxification of brevetoxin in rats through metabolic activities and key elimination routes by analyzing samples from individual rats exposed to two brevetoxin congeners (PbTx-2 and PbTx-3). Brevetoxins were detected by radioimmunoassay in methanolic extracts of blood within 1 h post intraperitoneal (ip) administration.

Fish Sludge as Feed in Circular Bioproduction: Overview of Biological and Chemical Hazards in Fish Sludge and Their Potential Fate via Ingestion by Invertebrates

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2025.
This review provides knowledge of the biosecurity risks of using fish sludge to produce novel feed ingredients from low‐trophic, extractive animal species in circular value chains. The review includes nutritional composition, sludge treatment practices, EU regulations, and the fate of microbial and chemical hazards contained in sludge till raw ...

Effects of Harmful Algal Blooms on Amphibians and Reptiles are Under‐Reported and Under‐Represented

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 43, Issue 9, Page 1936-1949, September 2024.
Abstract Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a persistent and increasing problem globally, yet we still have limited knowledge about how they affect wildlife. Although semi‐aquatic and aquatic amphibians and reptiles have experienced large declines and occupy environments where HABs are increasingly problematic, their vulnerability to HABs remains unclear.
