Ciguatoxin reduces larval survivability in finfish
Toxicon, 1999Ciguatoxins are lipophilic polyether toxins which concentrate in the viscera and flesh of coral reef associated finfish (Hessel et al., 1960). In this study, we quantify the adverse effects of ciguatoxin on fish embryos by microinjection into the egg yolk of medaka (Oryzias latipis) embryos. Embryos microinjected with 0.1-0.9 pg/egg (ppb) of ciguatoxin

The transport of ciguatoxin: A case report
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2001Ciguatera fish poisoning has been responsible for as many as half of all food poisonings in the United States due to fish. Because the initial symptoms often include gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, patients may be discharged from the Emergency Department with a diagnosis of "acute gastroenteritis ...

Analytical challenges to ciguatoxins
Current Opinion in Food Science, 2017Ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) is a form of food poisoning caused by consumption of varieties of toxic ciguatera fish species from tropical and subtropical waters. In the present review, significant features and perspective of LC/MS methods for CTXs as confirmatory methods are reviewed on the discussion for one of the best LC/MS/MS method reported by ...

AbstractAfter repeated ip and oral administrations of ciguatoxin (CTX) and ciguatoxin‐4c (CTX‐4c), one of the derivatives of CTX, to male ICR mice at a dose of 0.1 μg/kg for 15 days, resulted in marked swelling of cardiac cells and endothelial lining cells of blood capillaries in the heart was observed.

Total Synthesis of Ciguatoxin and 51-HydroxyCTX3C
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2006Ciguatoxins, the principal causative toxins of ciguatera seafood poisoning, are large ladder-like polycyclic ethers with the 13 ether rings ranging from five- to nine-membered. In this paper, we describe the total synthesis of the two most toxic members of the ciguatoxin family, ciguatoxin 1 and 51-hydroxyCTX3C 2, based on a unified synthetic strategy.

Ciguatoxin: developing the methodology for total synthesis
Natural Product Reports, 2010Covering: up to 2009 The ciguatoxins are sodium channel toxins from the marine dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus, isolated in 1984. In this review, we summarize the principal concepts and recently developed methodologies for the synthesis of the ciguatoxins, including C–C bond formation by silylacetylene and cobalt-mediated cyclization.

Action of mannitol in ciguatoxin-intoxicated rats
Toxicon, 1999This study reports the effects of mannitol on nerve conduction when used as a therapeutic agent in mammals following the administration of ciguatoxin. Electrophysiological studies were performed in vivo on the rat ventral coccygeal nerve. The absolute and relative refractory periods, conduction velocity and the supernormal response were measured in ...

Immune effects of the neurotoxins ciguatoxins and brevetoxins
Toxicon, 2018Ciguatoxins (CTXs) and brevetoxins (PbTxs) are phycotoxins that can accumulate along the marine food chain and thus cause seafood poisoning in humans, namely "ciguatera fish poisoning" (CFP) and "neurotoxic shellfish poisoning" (NSP), respectively. CFP is characterized by early gastrointestinal symptoms and typical sensory disorders (paraesthesia, pain,
