Insight Into the Molecular Mechanisms for Microcystin Biodegradation in Lake Erie and Lake Taihu
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Microcystins are potent hepatotoxins that are frequently detected in fresh water lakes plagued by toxic cyanobacteria. Microbial biodegradation has been referred to as the most important avenue for removal of microcystin from aquatic environments.

Responses of antioxidant system in Arabidopsis thaliana suspension cells to the toxicity of microcystin-RR [PDF]
, 2005 Microcystins are cyclic heptapeptide hepatoxins produced by many species of cyanobacteria. The toxic effects and mechanism of microcystins on animals have been well studied both in vivo and in vitro.

Distributions and Bioaccumulation of Microcystins [PDF]
, 2022 Microcystins are hepatotoxins and tumor promotors, with various deleterious effects on plants as well. There are 270+ known congeners of the toxin microcystin, structural variants of the molecule. These hepatotoxins are produced by cyanobacteria, and are

Toxic mechanisms of microcystins in mammals [PDF]
Toxicology Research, 2017 This review discusses mechanisms of toxicity, particularly those observed in liver tissue, mediated by microcystins (MCs) produced by cyanobacteria.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Marine Drugs, 2014 Microcystins (MCs) are cyclic peptides produced by cyanobacteria, which can be harmful to humans and animals when ingested. Differences in the coding of the non‑ribosomal peptide synthetase/polyketide synthase enzyme complex responsible for microcystin ...

Phytotoxicity associated to microcystins: a review [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2014 Microcystins (MC) are the most studied toxins of cyanobacteria since they are widely distributed and account for several cases of human and animal poisoning, being potent inhibitors of the serine/threonine protein phosphatases 1 (PP1) and 2A (PP2A). The phosphatases PP1 and PP2A are also present in plants, which may also suffer adverse effects due to ...
