Sulfo-Gambierones, Two New Analogs of Gambierone Produced by Gambierdiscus excentricus
Ciguatera poisoning is caused by the ingestion of fish or shellfish contaminated with ciguatoxins produced by dinoflagellate species belonging to the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa. Unlike in the Pacific region, the species producing ciguatoxins in the

Multiple sodium channel isoforms mediate the pathological effects of Pacific ciguatoxin-1 [PDF]
Human intoxication with the seafood poison ciguatoxin, a dinoflagellate polyether that activates voltage-gated sodium channels (NaV), causes ciguatera, a disease characterised by gastrointestinal and neurological disturbances. We assessed the activity of

Health benefits of microalgae and their microbiomes
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 ...

Ciguatoxins: Cyclic Polyether Modulators of Voltage-gated Iion Channel Function
Ciguatoxins are cyclic polyether toxins, derived from marine dinoflagellates, which are responsible for the symptoms of ciguatera poisoning. Ingestion of tropical and subtropical fin fish contaminated by ciguatoxins results in an illness characterised by
