Identification of ciguatoxins in a shark involved in a fatal food poisoning in the Indian Ocean
Severe food poisoning events after the consumption of sharks have been reported since the 1940s; however, there has been no clear understanding of their cause. Herein, we report for the first time the presence of ciguatoxins (CTXs) in sharks.

Brevenal inhibits pacific ciguatoxin-1B-induced neurosecretion from bovine chromaffin cells.
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

Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is a human food-borne poisoning that has been known since ancient times to be found mainly in tropical and subtropical areas, which occurs when fish or very rarely invertebrates contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) are consumed ...

To begin to understand the impact of food chain dynamics on ciguatera risk, we used published data to model the transfer of ciguatoxins across four trophic levels of a marine food chain in Platypus Bay, Australia.

A phylogenetic re-analysis of groupers with applications for ciguatera fish poisoning. [PDF]
BackgroundCiguatera fish poisoning (CFP) is a significant public health problem due to dinoflagellates. It is responsible for one of the highest reported incidence of seafood-borne illness and Groupers are commonly reported as a source of CFP due to ...

Emerging occurrence of Gambierdiscus carolinianus in the Azores: The northernmost Atlantic record
Abstract The dinoflagellate genus Gambierdiscus was detected for the first time in the Azores Archipelago, representing its northernmost record to date (> 39°N). Two strains were isolated from macroalgal substrates on Corvo and Faial Islands during the summer of 2024, coinciding with a marine heatwave in which sea‐surface temperature anomalies exceeded

Tropical epibenthic dinoflagellate communities produce a plethora of bioactive secondary metabolites, including the toxins ciguatoxins (CTXs) and potentially gambierones, that can contaminate fishes, leading to ciguatera poisoning (CP) when consumed by ...
