Microcystins Exposure and the Risk of Metabolic Syndrome: A Cross-Sectional Study in Central China

open access: yesToxins
A growing body of evidence indicates that microcystins (MCs) exposure may cause metabolic diseases. However, studies exploring the effects of MCs exposure on the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in humans are currently lacking, and the underlying ...

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 ...

Toxigenic Cyanobacteria and Microcystins in a Large Northern Oligotrophic Lake Onego, Russia

open access: yesToxins
Toxigenic cyanobacteria and microcystins in the oligotrophic pelagic zone and mesotrophic bay of Lake Onego—the second largest lake in Europe—were found for the first time. Microscopic analysis revealed that Dolichospermum lemmermannii, D.

Renal accumulation and effects of intraperitoneal injection of extracted microcystins in omnivorous crucian carp (Carassius auratus)

open access: yes, 2013
An acute toxicological experiment was designed to characterize the sequence of renal ultrastructural changes with accumulated MCs in crucian carp injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with extracted microcystins (mainly MC-RR and -LR) at two doses, 50 and ...
