Total Synthesis of Isotopically-Labeled Cylindrospermopsin Cyanotoxins [PDF]
Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, are prokaryotic organisms that inhabit freshwater and brackish lakes. They produce toxic secondary metabolites known as cyanotoxins, the increased occurrence of which is believed to be a result of ...

Toxicity and uptake mechanism of cylindrospermopsin and lophyrotomin in primary rat hepatocytes
The toxicities and uptake mechanisms of two hepatotoxins, namely cylindrospermopsin and lophyrotomin, were investigated on primary rat hepatocytes by using microcystin-LR (a well-known hepatotoxin produced by cyanobacteria) as a comparison.

The potential endocrine disruption activity of cyanotoxins, particularly their effects on estrogen and androgen receptors (ER, AR), remains poorly understood. In the present study, the potential agonistic/antagonistic estrogenic and androgenic activities

Arginine (Arg) and glycine (Gly) seem to be the only substrates accepted by the amidinotransferase that catalyze the first step of the synthesis pathway of the cyanotoxin cylindrospermopsin (CYN), leading to guanidinoacetate (GAA).

The ecological effects of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopsin
The occurrence of nuisance growths or blooms of cyanobacteria in reservoirs and other waterbodies poses a potential risk to the quality of water as many species are capable of producing secondary metabolites that may be toxic or impart unpleasant taste ...
