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

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.
