Okadaic Acid: More than a Diarrheic Toxin [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2013 Okadaic acid (OA) is one of the most frequent and worldwide distributed marine toxins. It is easily accumulated by shellfish, mainly bivalve mollusks and fish, and, subsequently, can be consumed by humans causing alimentary intoxications.

Serine/Threonine Protein Phosphatase 2A Regulates the Transport of Axonal Mitochondria
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 Microtubule-based transport provides mitochondria to distant regions of neurons and is essential for neuronal health. To identify compounds that increase mitochondrial motility, we screened 1,641 small-molecules in a high-throughput screening platform ...

Histone deacetylase 2 is phosphorylated, ubiquitinated, and degraded by cigarette smoke [PDF]
, 2008 Cigarette smoke (CS)–induced lung inflammation involves the reduction of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) abundance, which is associated with steroid resistance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and in individuals with severe asthma who

Mechanism of the stimulatory action of okadaic acid on lipolysis in rat fat cells
Journal of Lipid Research, 2000 Okadaic acid was found to induce concentration- and time-dependent lipolysis in rat fat cells in the absence of lipolytic hormones, but it did not significantly increase the total hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) activity in these fat cells, the activity ...

Simultaneous Effect of Temperature and Irradiance on Growth and Okadaic Acid Production from the Marine Dinoflagellate Prorocentrum belizeanum [PDF]
, 2014 Benthic marine dioflagellate microalgae belonging to the genus Prorocentrum are a major source of okadaic acid (OA), OA analogues and polyketides. However, dinoflagellates produce these valuable toxins and bioactives in tiny quantities, and they grow ...

Okadaic Acid: A Tool to Study the Hippo Pathway
Marine Drugs, 2013 Mammalian Ste20-like kinases 1 and 2 (MST1 and MST2) are activated in NIH3T3 cells exposed to okadaic acid. The Hippo pathway is a newly emerging signaling that functions as a tumor suppressor.

Akt-dependent Pp2a activity is required for epidermal barrier formation during late embryonic development [PDF]
, 2009 Acquisition of epidermal barrier function occurs late in mouse gestation. Several days before birth a wave of barrier acquisition sweeps across murine fetal skin, converging on dorsal and ventral midlines.
