Toxic Cyanobacteria: A Growing Threat to Water and Air Quality.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
The global expansion of harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) poses an increasing threat to public health. CyanoHABs are characterized by the production of toxic metabolites known as cyanotoxins.

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Review [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Toxic cyanobacteria are common in Portuguese freshwaters and the most common toxins are microcystins. The occurrence of microcystin-LR (MCYST-LR) has been reported since 1990 and a significant number of water reservoirs that are used for drinking water ...

Retracing cyanobacteria blooms in the Baltic Sea

Scientific Reports, 2022
In late summer, massive blooms and surface scums of cyanobacteria emerge regularly in the Baltic Sea. The bacteria can produce toxins and add bioavailable nitrogen fixed from atmospheric nitrogen to an already over-fertilized system.

Reprogramming tumor immune microenvironment by ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms for enhanced cancer immunotherapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms reprogram the tumor immune microenvironment by targeting tumor cells, immune cells, and non‐immune stromal cells to enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer immunotherapy represents a significant advancement in cancer treatment by enhancing the specific recognition and elimination of cancer cells.

UM BREVE ESTUDO SOBRE A INATIVAÇÃO DA TOXINA MICROCISTINA-LR POR IRRADIAÇÃO GAMA E ANÁLISE POR METODOLOGIAS HPLC-SPE ONLINE E ESPECTROMETRIA DE MASSAS [PDF]

Química Nova
Many of the toxins produced by cyanobacteria have multiple variants, some being more toxic than others. Microcystins are a group of toxins produced by cyanobacteria that have approximately 100 variants with LD50 (lethal dose 50%) values ranging from 25 ...

Benthic cyanobacteria: A utility-centred field study.

Harmful Algae, 2022
Although there is growing evidence that benthic cyanobacteria represent a significant source of toxins and taste and odour (T&O) compounds in water bodies globally, water utilities rarely monitor for them.

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Citrus depressa peel extract and its polymethoxyflavones mitigate acetaminophen‐induced chronic liver injury in mice through antioxidant activation, epigenetic regulation, and gut microbiota modulation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.
