Detection of nodularin in European flounder (Platichthys flesus) in the west coast of Sweden: Evidence of nodularin mediated oxidative stress [PDF]

open access: yesHarmful Algae, 2009
The brackish, bloom-forming cyanobacterium Nodularia spumigena produces a peptide called nodularin, which may induce liver damage in fish.

The photocatalytic destruction of the cyanotoxin, nodularin using TiO2 [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Catalysis B: Environmental, 2005
Abstract Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) photocatalysis has been used to initiate the destruction of nodularin, a natural hepatotoxin produced by cyanobacteria. The destruction process was monitored using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis which has also enabled the identification of a number of the photocatalytic decomposition products.

Cloud-point extraction of nodularin-R from natural waters [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytica Chimica Acta, 2004
A cloud-point extraction (CPE) technique for the determination of a cyanobacterial hepatotoxin, nodularin-R, in aqueous media using a cationic surfactant, tricaprylmethylammonium chloride (Aliquat-336), was developed.

Biodegradation of microcystins and nodularin in freshwaters

Chemosphere, 2008
Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) was readily biodegraded on addition to six different water samples irrespective of their previous exposure to microcystins. Subsequent studies with water from three of these water bodies confirmed the degradation of MC-LR and also demonstrated the biodegradation of MC-LF, nodularin and mixture of microcystins and nodularin.

Nodularin, a cyanobacterial toxin, is synthesized in planta by symbiotic Nostoc sp. [PDF]

open access: yesISME Journal, 2012
The nitrogen-fixing bacterium, Nostoc, is a commonly occurring cyanobacterium often found in symbiotic associations. We investigated the potential of cycad cyanobacterial endosymbionts to synthesize microcystin/nodularin.

Suppression of IL-2 and IL-4 gene expression by nodularin through the reduced NF-AT binding activity [PDF]

open access: yesToxicology Letters, 2000
Nodularin is a cyclic peptide produced by cyanobacteria. In the present study, the inhibitory effect of nodularin on T lymphocyte functions was demonstrated.

Comprehensive insights into the occurrence and toxicological issues of nodularins

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021
The occurrence of cyanobacterial toxins is being increasingly reported. Nodularins (NODs) are one of the cyanotoxins group mainly produced by Nodularia spumigena throughout the world. NODs may exert adverse effects on animal and human health, and NOD-R variant is the most widely investigated. However, research focused on them is still limited. In order

Nodularins in poisoning

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2013
Nodularins are an important class of hepatotoxic cyclic pentapeptides that are produced by the cyanobacteria Nodularia spumigena. These peptides have been found worldwide and have been implicated in the deaths of animals as well as a potent cyanotoxin in humans.

Nodularin-Har:  A New Nodularin from Nodularia

Journal of Natural Products, 2000
A cyanobacterial hepatotoxin, nodularin-Har, having a homoarginine instead of an arginine in nodularin, was isolated from Nodularia PCC7804. The structure was elucidated as 1 on the basis of 2D NMR and FABMS. The LD(50) (mouse ip) value of 1 was 70 microg/kg.

Redox Mechanisms of Nodularin and Chemically Degraded Nodularin

Electroanalysis, 2011
AbstractThe electrochemical behaviour of Nodularin (NOD), a hepatotoxic cyclic pentapeptide, was studied at a glassy carbon electrode. NOD electrochemical oxidation is an irreversible, pH‐independent process, involving the transfer of one electron. Upon incubation in different pH electrolytes, chemical degradation of NOD was electrochemically detected ...
