Research Progress on Anti‐Inflammatory Adipokine SFRP5‐Mediated Lipid Metabolism and Its Potential Role in Neural Development

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To systematically review the structural features of secreted frizzled‑related protein 5 (SFRP5) and its dual regulation of canonical/non‑canonical Wnt signaling, analyze its association with metabolic disorders, and specifically explore the role and mechanisms of the SFRP5–lipid metabolism axis in neural and optic nerve development ...

First report of microcystins in Taiwan [PDF]

Toxicon, 1998
This is the first report on microcystins from Microcystis aeruginosa Kützing in Taiwan. A total of nine strains of cyanobacteria have been isolated from eutrophic aquaculture ponds and water reservoirs. By mouse toxicity assay, six of the nine strains had LD100 in the range of 25-100 mg per kg mouse for dried bacterial mass. Microcystin-LR and -RR were

Limnofasciculus delicatus (Coleofasciculaceae, Coleofasciculales), a Novel Mat‐Forming Cyanobacterium From Shenandoah River, Virginia, USA

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
A novel mat‐forming benthic freshwater cyanobacterium, Limnofasciculus delicatus, is described based on morphological, phylogenetic and genomic evidence from the North and South Forks of the Shenandoah River. Although Limnofasciculus delicatus lacks biosynthetic gene clusters associated with the production of known cyanotoxins, it occurs in association

Transcriptional alteration of cytoskeletal genes induced by microcystins in three organs of rats [PDF]

, 2010
This study explored the mechanisms of toxicity of microcystins by measuring the transcription levels of nine cytoskeletal genes (actin, tubulin, vimentin, ezrin, radixin, moesin, MAP1b, tau, stathmin) in the liver, kidney and spleen of male Wistar rats ...

Satellite Remote Sensing of Drinking Water Intakes in Lake Erie for Cyanobacteria Population Using Two MODIS-Based Indicators as a Potential Tool for Toxin Tracking

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017
The growth of toxic Cyanobacterium, Microcystis aeruginosa, and the production of toxins, microcystins, pose serious concerns for the ecological health of lakes, such as western Lake Erie.

Adsorption of microcystins by carbon nanotubes [PDF]

Chemosphere, 2006
The production of cyanobacterial toxins microcystins (MCs) by cyanobacterial bloom which may promote the growth of tumor in human liver is a growing environmental problem worldwide. In this paper, the adsorption of MC-RR and LR, which were extracted from cyanobacterial cells in Dianchi Lake in China, by carbon nanotubes (CNTs), wood-based activated ...

Phytoplankton growth and potential cyanotoxin production differ in response to nitrogen and phosphorus amendments in late summer communities from Kabetogama Lake (Minnesota, United States)

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 883-903, June 2026.
Abstract Cyanotoxins such as microcystin (MC), cylindrospermopsin, and saxitoxin are secondary metabolites that are rich in nitrogen (N). Most cyanobacteria grow best on reduced inorganic N (ammonium, NH4), but when NH4 is absent, cyanobacteria can activate physiological pathways to process other N forms (e.g., nitrate; NO3).

Dominance and toxicity without lethality: Exploring biomass, cyanometabolites, and Daphnia responses across Cyanobacterial strains

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 801-817, June 2026.
Abstract Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan, important components of biomass with a remarkable ability to synthesize a diverse array of bioactive compounds, some of which may have toxic effects on other organisms and ecosystems. In this study, filamentous cyanobacterial strains isolated predominantly from temperate European freshwaters (Aphanizomenon ...

Purification and identification of microcystin-RR [PDF]

Chinese Journal of Chromatography, 2013
An effective method based on the combination of solid phase extraction and gel chromatography to extract and purify microcystin-RR (MC-RR) from natural cyanobacteria bloom was developed. Thirty five gram natural cyanobacterial bloom scum was extracted with 70% aqueous methanol. After the methanol in the crude extract was removed by a rotary evaporator,

Spatiotemporal Contaminant Occurrence and Risk Assessment in the Arroio Dourado River Under the Influence of Agriculture and a Deactivated Dumpsite

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
Integrated monitoring and risk assessment of an agricultural river influenced by a deactivated dumpsite. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the impacts of agricultural activities and a decommissioned landfill on the Arroio Dourado River and identified critical sampling periods and strategic monitoring locations.
