Domoic acid biosynthesis and genome expansion in Nitzschia navis-varingica [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Production of the neurotoxin domoic acid (DA) by benthic diatom Nitzschia navis-varingica poses considerable health and economic concerns. In this study, we employed whole genome sequencing and transcriptomic analyses of regionally distinct N.

Climatic regulation of the neurotoxin domoic acid [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance We investigate regulation of domoic acid, a potent marine phycotoxin, at the climate scale. Due to the threat domoic acid can pose to public health, marine wildlife, and coastal economies, decades of laboratory experiments have examined controls on domoic acid production without reaching consensus on reliable toxin-producing ...

Occurrence and Seasonal Monitoring of Domoic Acid in Three Shellfish Species from the Northern Adriatic Sea [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2022
As filter feeders, bivalves and ascidians can accumulate contaminants present in the environment and pass them on to higher food chain levels as vectors.

Quantifying the linkages between California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) strandings and particulate domoic acid concentrations at piers across Southern California

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Domoic acid-producing blooms of the diatom genus Pseudo-nitzschia are pervasive in coastal environments globally. Domoic acid, a neurotoxin, accumulates via trophic transfer into marine food webs and is often associated with mass marine mammal mortality ...

High CO2 and silicate limitation synergistically increase the toxicity of Pseudo-nitzschia fraudulenta. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Anthropogenic CO(2) is progressively acidifying the ocean, but the responses of harmful algal bloom species that produce toxins that can bioaccumulate remain virtually unknown.

Domoic Acid Improves the Competitive Ability of Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima against the Diatom Skeletonema marinoi

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2013
Because domoic acid, a neurotoxic secondary metabolite produced by marine diatoms in the genus Pseudo-nitzschia, is hypothesized to be part of a high affinity iron uptake system, we investigated whether domoic acid could improve the competitive ability ...

Domoic Acid - A New Toxin in the Croatian Adriatic Shellfish Toxin Profile

open access: yesMolecules, 2010
This is the first study that presents concentrations of domoic acid detected in the whole shellfish tissue from breeding and harvesting areas along the Croatian coast of the Adriatic Sea during the period 2006 to 2008. Shellfish sample analyses after SAX

Neurotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neurotoxicity refers to the direct or indirect effect of chemicals that disrupt the nervous system of humans or animals. Numerous chemicals can produce neurotoxic diseases in humans, and many more are used as experimental tools to disturb or damage the ...

Divergent Gene Expression Profiles in Alaskan Sea Otters: An Indicator of Chronic Domoic Acid Exposure?

open access: yesOceans, 2022
An opportunistic investigation into ecosystem instability in Kachemak Bay (KBay), Alaska, has led us to investigate exposure to toxic algae in sea otters.
