Domoic acid (DA) is a glutamate analog and a characterized neurotoxicant. Outside of the CNS, glutamate receptors are also found in peripheral tissues, including the kidney, which opens the possibility that the kidney may also be susceptible to excitatory toxicity.

Ischemic Cardiomyopathy Following Seizure Induction by Domoic Acid [PDF]
Exposure to the excitotoxin domoic acid (DOM) has been shown to produce cardiac lesions in both clinical and animal studies. We have previously shown that DOM failed to directly affect cardiomyocyte viability and energetics, but the development of this cardiomyopathy has remained unexplained.

Abstract In the context of global change, marine organisms are subjected not only to gradual changes in abiotic parameters, but also to an increasing number of extreme events, such as heatwaves. However, we still know little about the influence of heatwaves on the structure of marine communities, and experimental studies are needed to test the impact ...

Grazer‐induced bioluminescence and toxicity in marine dinoflagellates
Abstract Marine copepods are the most abundant multicellular zooplankton in the global oceans. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique bouquet of chemical compounds, including polar lipids such as copepodamides. Prey organisms can detect copepodamides and respond by inducing defensive traits including bioluminescence, toxin production ...

Algal toxins produced by microalgae, such as domoic acid (DA)11 (DA) domoic acid, have toxic effects on humans. However, toxicity tests using mice only yield lethal doses of algal toxins without providing insights into the mechanism of action on cells ...

Harmful algal blooms and climate change: exploring future distribution changes [PDF]
Harmful algae can cause death in fish, shellfish, marine mammals, and humans, via their toxins or from effects associated with their sheer quantity. There are many species, which cause a variety of problems around north-west Europe, and the frequency and

Intraguild predation in sympatric seals and the effect on a declining population
This study examined the prevalence, spatial extent, and temporal trends of grey seal intraguild predation (IGP). We demonstrated the utility of integrating disparate datasets to address conservation challenges and highlighted how IGP, while seemingly rare, can hold sympatric species in a predator‐pit and in small populations may contribute to declines.

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Ion channels
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,

Integrating scFv into xMAP Assays for the Detection of Marine Toxins
Marine toxins, such as saxitoxin and domoic acid are associated with algae blooms and can bioaccumulate in shell fish which present both health and economic concerns.

Toxic Algae Contamination and Demand for Shellfish: A Case Study of Demand for Mussels in Montreal [PDF]
Toxic algae blooms are a worldwide phenomena, which appear to be increasing in frequency and severity. These natural events cause product contaminations that often have significant economic consequences, including supply interruptions due to closed ...
