In silico simulations and functional cell studies evidence similar potency and distinct binding of pacific and caribbean ciguatoxins [PDF]
, 2022 Ciguatoxins (CTX) cause ciguatera poisoning, which is the most common reported human food poisoning related to natural marine toxins. Pacific ciguatoxins are the most abundant and studied CTX analogues; however, the growing distribution of Caribbean ...

Blockade of maitotoxin-induced oncotic cell death reveals zeiosis [PDF]
BMC Physiology, 2002 Maitotoxin (MTX) initiates cell death by sequentially activating 1) Ca2+ influx via non-selective cation channels, 2) uptake of vital dyes via formation of large pores, and 3) release of lactate dehydrogenase, an indication of cell lysis. MTX also causes formation of membrane blebs, which dramatically dilate during the cytolysis phase. To determine the

NLRP3: A Novel Mediator in Cardiovascular Disease
Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death worldwide. Inflammasome infiltration has been identified to play a central role in the pathological progression of certain cardiovascular diseases, such as vascular damage spanning atherosclerosis, aneurysm, or arteritis; ischemic heart disease; and other nonischemic heart diseases including diabetic ...

Cell Death‐Associated Molecular‐Pattern Molecules: Inflammatory Signaling and Control
Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis are different cellular death programs characterized in organs and tissues as consequence of microbes infection, cell stress, injury, and chemotherapeutics exposure. Dying and death cells release a variety of self‐proteins and bioactive chemicals originated from cytosol, nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Crohn′s disease is a complex disease in which genome, microbiome, and environment interact to produce the immunological background of the disease. Disease in childhood is more extensive and characterized by a rapid progression, leading to severe repercussions in the course of the disorder.

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 191-204, December 2012., 2012 Abstract Exposure to cadmium results in disturbances in cell homeostasis in all living organisms. The first response to stress factors, including cadmium, is activation of signal transduction pathways that mobilize cell defense mechanisms. The aim of this review is a comparison between the signaling network triggered by Cd in plants and animals ...

Inhibition of Maitotoxin‐Induced Ca2+ Influx in Rat Glioma C6 Cells by Brevetoxins and Synthetic Fragments of Maitotoxin [PDF]
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1998 Abstract: 45Ca2+ influx in rat glioma C6 cells induced by 0.3 nM maitotoxin (MTX) was markedly inhibited by brevetoxin A (PbTx1) and brevetoxin B (PbTx2), with EC50 values of 16 and 13 µM, respectively. This inhibition was observed immediately after addition of MTX when monitored with fura‐2, which suggests that PbTx2 directly blocks the action of MTX.
