The marine toxin, Yessotoxin, induces apoptosis and increases mitochondrial activity
: Yessotoxin (YTX) group are phycotoxins produced by different species of dinoflagellates. YTX activates the Phosphodiesterases (PDEs). This group of toxins can be consumed by humans, however no intoxication events are reported.
