Ciguatoxins in Fish [PDF]

, 2020
Ciguatoxins are very potent marine neurotoxins, that accumulate to toxic levels in edible fish in certain circumtropical areas, and are associated with ciguatera fish poisoning worldwide. Ciguatoxins are produced by specific benthic dinoflagellate species, enter the marine food chain via herbivorous fish and invertebrates, and eventually biotransformed

A 12‐year retrospective review of tetrodotoxin poisoning in Hong Kong

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 111-116, March 2023., 2023
Introduction: Tetrodotoxin poisoning is typically caused by puffer fish consumption. This study is to review its demographics, clinical presentations and management in Hong Kong. Method: Reported cases of tetrodotoxin poisoning to Hong Kong Poison Information Centre from October 2008 to March 2021 were included in the study. Information from electronic

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

Health benefits of microalgae and their microbiomes

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1966-1983, July 2022., 2022
Microalgae may offer solutions to the societal challenge we face concerning the lack of antibiotics treating the growing level of antimicrobial resistant bacteria and fungi in clinical and industrial settings. While the vast majority of microalgae and their associated microbiota are unstudied, they may be a fascinating and rewarding source for novel ...

Quantification of Representative Ciguatoxins in the Pacific Using Quantitative Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Marine Drugs, 2017
The absolute quantification of five toxins involved in ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) in the Pacific was carried out by quantitative 1H-NMR. The targeted toxins were ciguatoxin-1B (CTX1B), 52-epi-54-deoxyciguatoxin-1B (epideoxyCTX1B), ciguatoxin-3C ...

Rapid Extraction and Identification of Maitotoxin and Ciguatoxin-Like Toxins from Caribbean and Pacific Gambierdiscus Using a New Functional Bioassay.

PLoS ONE, 2016
BackgroundCiguatera is a circumtropical disease produced by polyether sodium channel toxins (ciguatoxins) that enter the marine food chain and accumulate in otherwise edible fish.

In Vitro Glucuronidation of Caribbean Ciguatoxins in Fish: First Report of Conjugative Ciguatoxin Metabolites

Chemical Research in Toxicology, 2021
Ciguatoxins (CTX) are potent marine neurotoxins, which can bioaccumulate in seafood, causing a severe and prevalent human illness known as ciguatera poisoning (CP). Despite the worldwide impact of ciguatera, effective disease management is hindered by a lack of knowledge regarding the movement and biotransformation of CTX congeners in marine food webs,

Depuration Kinetics and Growth Dilution of Caribbean Ciguatoxin in the Omnivore Lagodon rhomboides: Implications for Trophic Transfer and Ciguatera Risk

Toxins, 2021
Modeling ciguatoxin (CTX) trophic transfer in marine food webs has significant implications for the management of ciguatera poisoning, a circumtropical disease caused by human consumption of CTX-contaminated seafood.
