We review and develop conceptual models for the bio-transfer of ciguatoxins in food chains for Platypus Bay and the Great Barrier Reef on the east coast of Australia.

Plesiomonas: A Review on Food Safety, Fish‐Borne Diseases, and Tilapia
Fish and fish products are considered a fundamental part of the human diet due to their high nutritional value. Food‐borne diseases are considered a major public health challenge worldwide due to their incidence, associated mortality, and negative economic repercussions. Food safety is the guarantee that foods will not cause harm to the health of those

Complete Structure of Maitotoxin.
Maitotoxin (MTX, 1) is the most toxic and largest non-biopolymer known to date. The complete structural determination of MTX including the absolute configuration has been achieved recently. The relative configurations of the four acyclic portions (C1-C15, C35-C39, C63-C68, and C134-C142) were elucidated by (1) the extensive configurational analysis ...

Concerted action of human chorionic gonadotropin and norepinephrine on intracellular-free calcium in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]
Luteal cells are known to possess receptors for LH/hCG and receptors of the beta-adrenergic type. Interactions of specific agonists with either receptor lead to the activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequently to an increase of cAMP.

Traditional remedies used in the Western Pacific for the treatment of ciguatera poisoning [PDF]
Ciguatera is a specific type of food poisoning associated with the ingestion of tropical fish, which, although normally safe for consumption, may at times contain high amounts of ciguatoxin, as well as other chemically related toxins.

Synthesis of the WXYZA′ Domain of Maitotoxin [PDF]
A synthesis of the WXYZA' domain (7) of the marine neurotoxin maitotoxin (1) is reported. The convergent synthetic strategy involves construction of key building blocks 11 and 12, their coupling, and the elaboration of the resulting ester (10) to the target molecule through a ring-closing metathesis and a hydroxy dithioketal cyclization as the key ...

Alternative method to detect compounds produced by Gambierdiscus spp.
Ciguatoxins (CTXs) and CTX precursors are produced by several Gambierdiscus spp. These polyether toxins are associated to ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP). In addition to CTX, maitotoxins (MTX) and gambierol are also produced by these dinoflagellates.

P2X receptors: epithelial ion channels and regulators of salt and water transport. [PDF]
When the results from electrophysiological studies of renal epithelial cells are combined with data from in vivo tubule microperfusion experiments and immunohistochemical surveys of the nephron, the accumulated evidence suggests that ATP-gated ion ...
