Characteristic Distribution of Ciguatoxins in the Edible Parts of a Grouper, Variola louti

Toxins, 2021
Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) is one of the most frequently encountered seafood poisoning syndromes; it is caused by the consumption of marine finfish contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs).

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,

Analytical Studies on Ciguateric Fish in Okinawa, Japan (II): The Grouper Variola albimarginata

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) refers to an illness caused by ingesting fish that have accumulated ciguatoxins (CTXs). CFP frequently occurs in the tropical and subtropical Indo-Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Ciguatoxin-Induced Changes in Gene Expression in Primary Cultures of Mice Cortical Neurons

Toxins, 2018
Ciguatoxins are polyether marine toxins that act as sodium channel activators. These toxins cause ciguatera, one of the most widespread nonbacterial forms of food poisoning, which presents several symptoms in humans including long-term neurological ...

Microbiome Associated With Gambierdiscus balechii Cultures Under Different Toxicity Conditions

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Dinoflagellates, including harmful algal bloom species, are known to co-exist with and rely upon bacteria but how the microbiome changes with the physiologies of the cognate dinoflagellates is poorly understood. Here, we used 16S rRNA gene meta-barcoding
