Tetrodotoxin and its analogues profile in nemertean species from the sea of Japan
Toxicon, 2018For the first time search for tetrodotoxin (TTX) and its analogues in the extracts of nemerteans using HPLC-MS/MS was performed. TTX analogues were detected in two nemertean species in addition to TTX: 7 analogues were detected in the extract of Cephalothrix simula, 3 analogues - in the extract 11-norTTX of Kulikovia manchenkoi. Presence of 5-deoxyTTX,

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is one of the most potent toxin already isolated, which occurs in a wide range of marine as well as terrestrial animals such as in newts and anurans. In this work, the occurrence of TTX and analogues was examined in three brachycephalid species: Brachycephalus ephippium, B. nodoterga and B. pernix using LC-FLD and LC-MS/MS.

Despite decades of research, the biosynthesis of tetrodotoxin, also known as a puffer fish toxin, remains an unsolved mystery. We disclose a synthesis of the 8-deoxy analogue of 4,9-anhydro-10-hemiketal-5-deoxy-tetrodotoxin, a possible biosynthetic precursor of tetrodotoxin isolated from the Japanese toxic newt, by an intramolecular radical cyclization

The monoclonal antibody against tetrodotoxin (TTX), prepared by Kawatsu et al. (1997), has been used in several TTX-related studies. Herein, we confirmed the quite low cross-reactivity of this antibody to three major TTX analogues in pufferfish using competitive ELISA: 5,6,11-trideoxyTTX (

Brachycephalus ephippium is a diurnal frog, that shows aposematic colouration and inhabits Atlantic forest leaf litter in south-eastern Brazil. The presence of tetrodotoxin (TTX) in the skin, liver and ovaries of B. ephippium was demonstrated. The skin (260 M.U./g) exhibited the highest toxicity followed by liver (177 M.U./g).

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin naturally found in terrestrial and marine animals targeting the voltage-gated sodium channels. Historically, TTX has raised food safety concerns mainly in the Asian countries due to the consumption of the typical pufferfish-derived delicacy fugu.

The toxic flatworm, Planocera multitentaculata, possesses highly concentrated tetrodotoxin (TTX), also known as pufferfish toxin, throughout its life cycle, including the egg and larval stages. Additionally, TTX analogues, 5,6,11-trideoxyTTX and 11-norTTX-6(S)-ol, have also been detected in the flatworm.

Tetrodotoxin and its analogues in extracts from the toad Atelopus oxyrhynchus (family: Bufonidae)
Toxicon, 1992Tetrodotoxin and its analogues, 4-epitetrodotoxin and 4,9-anhydrotetrodotoxin, were detected in the toad Atelopus oxyrhynchus by HPLC analysis. The toxin and its analogues were still present in a specimen which lived 3.5 years in captivity.

Total Synthesis of Chiriquitoxin, an Analogue of Tetrodotoxin Isolated from the Skin of a Dart Frog
Chemistry – A European Journal, 2014AbstractThe first total synthesis of chiriquitoxin, the most structurally complex analogue of tetrodotoxin isolated from a Costa Rican dart frog, has been accomplished from a newly designed intermediate for a variety of tetrodotoxin derivatives. The synthesis includes the third total synthesis of tetrodotoxin in this laboratory, and its intermediate ...

11-oxoTTX is an analogue 4-5 times more toxic than TTX itself, been rare even in marine animals. Two ions at m/z 320 and 336 corresponding to TTX and 11-oxoTTX (M+H(+)), respectively, were detected in the Brachycephalidae frog Brachycephalus ephippium extracts.
