Marine Drugs, 2023 Harmful algal blooms (HABs) can produce a variety of noxious effects and, in some cases, the massive mortality of wild and farmed marine organisms. Some HAB species produce toxins that are released into seawater or transferred via food webs (particulate ...

Cardiac remodeling and arrhythmia in a mouse model of Depdc5 haploinsufficiency
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Some ion channel genes linked to developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) are also linked to cardiac arrhythmia, leading to the hypothesis that predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to the complex disease presentation of DEE and possibly to the mechanism of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy.

Evolutionary acquisition and loss of saxitoxin biosynthesis in dinoflagellates: The second "core" gene, sxtG [PDF]
, 2013 Saxitoxin and its derivatives are potent neurotoxins produced by several cyanobacteria and dinoflagellate species. SxtA is the initial enzyme in the biosynthesis of saxitoxin.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten human, animal, and ecosystem health and safety through production of toxic secondary metabolites. Microcystis, a cosmopolitan bloom‐forming cyanobacterial genus, is well‐known for producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs), but it can produce many other bioactive cyanopeptides, such as ...

The genome of a saxitoxin-producing cyanobacterium [PDF]
, 2005 Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2005Saxitoxin, the causative agent of paralytic shellfish poisoning, is produced by dinoflagellates and cyanobacteria, the latter being a far simpler organism at the genomic level.

Toxins, 2018 Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin associated with human poisonings through the consumption of pufferfish. More recently, TTX has been identified in bivalve molluscs from diverse geographical environments, including Europe, and is therefore ...

Toxins, 2023 The armoured dinoflagellate Alexandrium can be found throughout many of the world’s temperate and tropical marine environments. The genus has been studied extensively since approximately half of its members produce a family of potent neurotoxins ...

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract Bioluminescent bays (biobays) are uncommon coastal ecosystems featuring dense populations of dinoflagellates, often found in mangrove‐ringed lagoons with long water retention times and high organic matter (OM) levels. Although mangroves are associated with high dinoflagellate abundance, it remains uncertain how inorganic nutrients compare with
