Microorganisms, 2022 (1) Background: Cyanobacteria produce a wide range of secondary metabolites, including tumor-promoting hepatotoxins. We recently reported evidence of an independent association between oral cyanobacteria and hepatocellular carcinoma in a U.S. population.

Towards a more complete understanding of the occurrence and toxicities of the cylindrospermopsins
AIMS Environmental Science, 2015 The existence of a number of cylindrospermopsin analogs has been confirmed by several authors. These cylindrospermopsin analogs were formerly seen as minor constituents, with normal cylindrospermopsin always being the dominant form.

Immunomodulatory Effects of Pure Cylindrospermopsin in Rats Orally Exposed for 28 Days
Toxins, 2022 Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is a ubiquitous cyanotoxin showing increasing incidence worldwide. CYN has been classified as a cytotoxin and, among its toxic effects, its immunotoxicity is scarcely studied.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 12, Page 3319-3332, December 2023., 2023 We explore the previously undescribed diversity of phages associated with anatoxin‐producing benthic mats from rivers, including a novel virulent cyanophage with a ‘jumbo’ genome. This virulent cyanophage is predicted to infect anatoxin‐producing Microcoleus and its appearance is concomitant with the host decline, supporting the kill‐the‐winner ...

In Vitro Mutagenic and Genotoxic Assessment of a Mixture of the Cyanotoxins Microcystin-LR and Cylindrospermopsin [PDF]
, 2019 The co-occurrence of various cyanobacterial toxins can potentially induce toxic effects different than those observed for single cyanotoxins, as interaction phenomena cannot be discarded. Moreover, mixtures are a more probable exposure scenario. However,

Toxins, 2014 Chrysosporum ovalisporum is a cylindrospermopsin toxin producing cyanobacterium that was reported in several lakes and reservoirs. Its growth dynamics and toxin distribution in field remain largely undocumented.

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 The aim of the study was to find a more effective method for treating wastewater generated from washing and cutting industrial containers such as intermediate bulk containers, steel drums, and plastic barrels. The researchers employed a sulfate radical‐based oxidation method and could show that it significantly enhanced the quality of the wastewater by

Cylindrospermopsin: occurrence, methods of detection and toxicology [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2012 Cyanobacteria are aquatic micro-organisms that pose a great threat to aquatic ecosystems by the production of dense blooms, but most importantly by the production of secondary metabolites, namely the cyanotoxins. One of these is cylindrospermopsin (CYN), a hepatotoxic polyketide-derived alkaloid with well-known associated cases of animal mortalities ...

Journal of Water and Environment Technology, 2022 Cyanotoxins produced by blue-green algae in lakes are among the most serious threats to water quality worldwide. As global warming rapidly extends the locations and timing of blue-green algae blooms, a simple and accessible method for ...
