Toxicological studies of paralytic shellfish toxins in mammalian systems

, 2003
Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) are a family of neurotoxins that can block neuronal transmission by binding to voltage-gated sodium channels, resulting in severe poisoning to animals and humans that ingest PST-contaminated diets.

Extraction methods for paralytic shellfish poisoning toxins

Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxins are potent neurotoxins, produced by several marine dinoflagellates. These toxins are tetrahydropurine derivatives based on the parent compound, saxitoxin (STX), and can be divided into three classes: carbamate ...

From biology to biotechnology: Host‐regulation factors from parasitoid wasps are a source of bioactive molecules with translational potential

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Parasitoid wasps deploy maternal and embryonic factors to reprogramme host physiology. Venom, calyx fluid, polydnaviruses, teratocytes and larval secretions act in a coordinated, compartmentalised manner. Host‐regulation factors are promising sources of insecticidal, antimicrobial and bioinspired translational molecules.

Linoleic Acid Enhances Murine Natural Killer Cell Function In Vitro but Compromises Mitochondrial Bioenergetic Function During Retroviral Infection

Immunology, EarlyView.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are potent effectors against virus‐infected and tumour cells. During Friend Virus (FV) infection, fatty acid metabolism supports NK‐cell effector functions. Here, we found that NK cells from FV‐infected mice preferentially take up linoleic acid (LA), which reduced proliferation, mitochondrial function, and increased reactive ...

Diagnosis and Off‐Label Treatment of Subcutaneous Putative Dracunculoid Nematodes in Apteronotus albifrons Originating From Wild‐Caught Fisheries

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apteronotus albifrons (Gymnotiformes: Apteronotidae), commonly known as the black ghost knifefish, is a high‐value ornamental fish that is susceptible to various parasites. The affected fish were wild‐caught fisheries and subsequently introduced into a commercial breeding system.
