In Vivo Evaluation of the Chronic Oral Toxicity of the Marine Toxin Palytoxin [PDF]
Palytoxin (PLTX) is one of the most poisonous substances known to date and considered as an emergent toxin in Europe. Palytoxin binds to the Na+-K+ ATPase, converting the enzyme in a permeant cation channel.

Integrated Multi-Omics Analysis Reveals Complex Cytotoxicity-Associated Molecular Response Patterns of Representative Toxins from Four Classes of Lipophilic Algal Toxins in Neuro-2a Cells [PDF]
Lipophilic marine toxins (LMTs) are important toxic risk factors in marine ecosystems and seafood safety, yet the comparative cytotoxicity-associated molecular responses of different LMT classes remain unclear.

Biosynthesis of marine toxins [PDF]
Throughout history, humans have encountered natural toxic chemicals from the ocean environment, often through contaminated seafood. Although marine toxins can be harmful to human health and devastate local environments when they are produced during algal bloom events, they are also important biochemical research reagents and drug leads in medicine.

Seafood products are important both nutritionally and economically. Within Europe, some 12 billion Pounds of fishery products are consumed annually and an enormous variety of species are available. Although seafood is rarely implicated in food poisoning, compared to other food sources, it does provide some specific human health hazards unique to this ...
