Effects of Various Marine Toxins on the Mouse Intestine Organoid Model. [PDF]
Toxins (Basel), 2022 Because of their trace existence, exquisite structure and unique role, highly toxic marine biotoxins have always led to the development of natural product identification, structure and function research, chemistry and biosynthesis, and there are still ...

British Medical Bulletin, 2000 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 ...

Are toxins from harmful algae a factor involved in the decline of harbour seal populations in Scotland? [PDF]
, 2015 Firstly this study builds on the investigation initiated by Hall and Frame (2010), which found that Scottish harbour seals were exposed to domoic acid (DA), a potent natural neurotoxin produced by phytoplankton.

Cnidarian toxins: recent evidences for potential therapeutic uses
The European Zoological Journal, 2020 Marine toxins have received global attention for their involvement in human intoxication. Many marine phyla are well adapted to produce venoms or toxins protect themselves from associated micro fauna, predators and pathogens.

Recent Advances in Aptasensing Strategies for Monitoring Phycotoxins: Promising for Food Safety
Biosensors, 2022 Phycotoxins or marine toxins cause massive harm to humans, livestock, and pets. Current strategies based on ordinary methods are long time-wise and require expert operators, and are not reliable for on-site and real-time use.

Marine toxins and the cytoskeleton [PDF]
The FEBS Journal, 2008 One of the most striking features of marine toxins is that many of them produce diarrhea. This effect has been attributed to an effect on the cytoskeleton, with the consequent disorganization of the adherent cells on the intestinal cell barrier leading to an excess of liquid.

Alzheimer’s Disease and Toxins Produced by Marine Dinoflagellates: An Issue to Explore
Marine Drugs, 2022 This paper examined the toxins naturally produced by marine dinoflagellates and their effects on increases in β-amyloid plaques along with tau protein hyperphosphorylation, both major drivers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This approach is in line with the
