Brevenal inhibits pacific ciguatoxin-1B-induced neurosecretion from bovine chromaffin cells.
PLoS ONE, 2008 Ciguatoxins and brevetoxins are neurotoxic cyclic polyether compounds produced by dinoflagellates, which are responsible for ciguatera and neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) respectively. Recently, brevenal, a natural compound was found to specifically

Marine Neurotoxins’ Effects on Environmental and Human Health: An OMICS Overview
Marine Drugs, 2021 Harmful algal blooms (HAB), and the consequent release of toxic metabolites, can be responsible for seafood poisoning outbreaks. Marine wildlife can accumulate these toxins throughout the food chain, which presents a threat to consumers’ health.

Marine Drugs, 2015 Regular occurrence of brevetoxin-producing toxic phytoplankton in commercial shellfishery areas poses a significant risk to shellfish consumer health. Brevetoxins and their causative toxic phytoplankton are more limited in their global distribution than

Fluorescent Receptor Binding Assay for Detecting Ciguatoxins in Fish. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Ciguatera fish poisoning is an illness suffered by > 50,000 people yearly after consumption of fish containing ciguatoxins (CTXs). One of the current methodologies to detect ciguatoxins in fish is a radiolabeled receptor binding assay (RBA(R)).

Determination of brevetoxin in recent marine sediments [PDF]
Chemosphere, 2008 Harmful algal blooms (HAB) of Karenia brevis (K. brevis) produce a suite of lipid soluble polyether brevetoxins, known to cause environmental, health and economic ill effects. There is evidence that K. brevis has increased in abundance over the past 50 years, but the dataset is incomplete.

Determination of Brevetoxins in Shellfish by the Neuroblastoma Assay [PDF]
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 2002 Abstract A neuroblastoma assay for determination of brevetoxins in shellfish was developed together with a method for sample cleanup that allows separation of brevetoxins from most of the components that cause matrix interference in the assay.

Chronic and punctuated changes in subtropical reef fish assemblages
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Understanding temporal changes in marine biodiversity is crucial for managing and conserving reef ecosystems in the face of global environmental shifts. Although biodiversity changes at global and regional scales often differ, the role of subtropical systems in these patterns has been relatively understudied until recently.

Ladder-Shaped Ion Channel Ligands: Current State of Knowledge
Marine Drugs, 2017 Ciguatoxins (CTX) and brevetoxins (BTX) are polycyclic ethereal compounds biosynthesized by the worldwide distributed planktonic and epibenthic dinoflagellates of Gambierdiscus and Karenia genera, correspondingly.
