Toward Disentangling the Multiple Nutritional Constraints Imposed by Planktothrix: The Significance of Harmful Secondary Metabolites and Sterol Limitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The harmful bloom-forming cyanobacterium Planktothrix is commonly considered to be nutritionally inadequate for zooplankton grazers, resulting in limited top-down control.

Nutrient disturbance in a shallow aquaculture pond impacts Microcystis gene expression but does not impact bacterial community function during bloom conditions

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1297-1310, August 2026.
Abstract Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) are worldwide issues. Reduced nitrogen forms (ammonium and urea) have recently been measured in freshwater systems at concentrations not previously recorded. These reduced nitrogen forms have been shown to favor the proliferation of harmful cyanobacteria.

Dynamic Cytotoxic Response to Microcystins Using Microelectronic Sensor Arrays

open access: yes, 2016
Microcystins are bioactive metabolites produced by cyanobacteria in water. These cyclic heptapeptides have caused public health concern worldwide. By interfering with cellular phosphorylation and signaling, microcystins can cause acute and chronic liver ...

Optimizing a long‐term monitoring strategy to track emerging cyanobacterial blooms in a Great Lakes estuary

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1264-1296, August 2026.
Abstract Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) are increasingly frequent and severe globally. Recently, the St. Louis River Estuary (SLRE) has experienced numerous cHABs, but the locations, timing, and environmental conditions associated with them are unknown.

Microcystins: Synthesis and structure–activity relationship studies toward PP1 and PP2A

open access: yes, 2018
Microcystins are highly toxic cyanotoxins responsible for plant, animal and human poisoning. Exposure to microcystins, mainly through drinkable water and contaminated food, is a current world health concern.

Production of microcystins in bloom-forming cyanobacteria and their environmental fates: a review

open access: yes, 2009
The present paper introduces the recent progresses on the production mechanisms and environmental fates of microcystins -the most common toxins produced in bloom-forming cyanobacteria, in particular, Microcystis.

Microcystins-Loaded Aged Nanoplastics Provoke a Metabolic Shift in Human Liver Cells

open access: yes, 2023
Studies concerning the toxicity of pollutant-loaded nanoplastics (NPs) toward humans are still in their infancy. Here, we evaluated the adsorption of microcystins (MCs) by pristine and aged polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs), prepared MCs-loaded aged PSNPS

Recreational Exposure to Low Concentrations of Microcystins During an Algal Bloom in a Small Lake

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2008
We measured microcystins in blood from people at risk for swallowing water or inhaling spray while swimming, water skiing, jet skiing, or boating during an algal bloom.
