The aims of this work were to determine the differential characterization of the urea soluble protein components of puffer fish species and to establish a preliminary proteomic database using an immobilized pH gradient two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) technique. The puffer fish muscle proteins resolved into 171-260 spots in the 2DE gels, with a pI

Nature, 1963
PUFFER fish (Tetraodontoidea) is an important cause of food poisoning in China and Japan1,2. Murtha et al.2 claimed that the poison acts centrally and peripherally to produce respiratory and neuromuscular paralyses. They offered as proof of its central action the more rapid onset of respiratory depression when the toxic extract was injected into the ...

Toxicity of the common puffer fish in Hong Kong
Experientia, 1971L'origine et la nature probable de la toxicite chez deux especes de poissons (Fugu etLagocephalus) a ete etudiee. Les tissus enumeres dans l'ordre de toxicite decroissant sont les gonades, le foie et les muscles, avec une difference entre les deux sexes, les tissus mâle etant plus toxiques que les tissus femelles.

Subcellular distribution of tetrodotoxin in puffer fish liver
Toxicon, 1999The liver homogenate of puffer fish was fractionated into blood cell, nuclear, mitochondrial, microsomal and cytosol fractions by the differential centrifugation method. All the five fractions were toxic to mice, although the toxin amount was significantly high in the cytosol fraction. Analyses by HPLC and LC-FABMS demonstrated that tetrodotoxin is the

We report three cases of a collective tetrodotoxin poisoning, after ingestion of puffer fish eggs. This neurotoxin is the most potent membrane stabilizer, blocking the nervous conduction and resulting in death from respiratory paralysis in case of massive ingestion.

CHEMISTRY OF PUFFER FISH TOXIN
Journal of Toxicology: Toxin Reviews, 2001Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is well known as the puffer fish toxin. Naturally occurring analogs of TTX have been isolated from puffer fish, newts and frogs, and their structures have been determined by spectroscopic methods. Additionally, TTX analogs have been prepared by chemical modification to investigate its binding site on sodium channels and the structure-

American family physician, 1990
Regarded by many as a delicacy, puffer fish can be the source of lethal food poisoning in humans. The syndrome is caused by tetrodotoxin, one of the most potent poisons known. Intoxication produces a constellation of symptoms, with paresthesias and generalized muscle weakness being common complaints.

Puffer Fish Poisoning: Bangladesh Perspective
2014As a coastal country, puffer fish (tetrodotoxin) poisoning is quite common in Bangladesh, which sporadically involved many of the rive rain districts and so far brought considerable number of death. Puffer fish is also known as fugu (in Japan), toadfish, globefish, blowfish, balloonfish, etc. around the world. There are nearly 100 different species and
