Ciguatera is a type of marine food poisoning produced by the consumption of ciguatoxic reef fish. The disease is of significant concern in many tropical areas where it has been known for centuries. Although mortality from ciguatera is low, morbidity is high and symptoms may be debilitating and prolonged.

Ciguatera is a form of poisoning that occurs after eating tropical and subtropical ciguatoxic fish. The ciguatoxins are a family of heat stable, lipid soluble cyclic polyether compounds that bind to and open voltage-sensitive Na+channels at resting membrane potential, resulting in neural hyperexcitability, as well as swelling of the nodes of Ranvier ...

Summary Ciguatera is, on a world-wide scale, the commonest of the four broad classes of ichthyosarcotoxism currently described. The disease is contracted by the consumption of toxic flesh from any of many fish species which are usually safe foodstuff.

Ciguatera poisoning is the most common foodborne illness caused by a chemical toxin in the United States and is endemic in the Caribbean and Indo-Pacific. Ciguatoxin, produced by a marine dinoflagellate that attaches to algae, is passed up the food chain to large fish and, finally, to humans. The toxin has anticholinesterase activity.

Ciguatera fish poisoning is probably more important than any other form of seafood poisoning. Its epidemiology is complex and it is impossible to predict outbreaks. Toxic fish (which look, taste and smell normal) contain ciguatoxins derived from microalgae via the food chain.

Ciguatera fish poisoning, with its characteristic gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms, has been clearly described in literature from the West Indies since the 18th century, with fragmentary reports dating back to the 1500s.1It is currently a major cause of morbidity in the Caribbean,2as well as in the South Pacific, where Bagnis and his ...

Ciguatera is a distressing form of fish poisoning, caused by the ingestion of one or more of a series of ciguatoxins. These poisons, some of the most potent mammalian neurotoxins known, are manufactured in reef- dwelling dinoflagellates and concentrated up the piscine food chain.
