Antinociceptive effects of tetrodotoxin (TTX) in rodents [PDF]
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2006 Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a powerful sodium channel blocker extracted from the puffer fish. The analgesic effects of TTX were investigated in different animal pain models.Wistar rats were submitted to the formalin test and to partial ligation of the sciatic nerve (Seltzer's model). Swiss Webster mice were used in the writhing test.

Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) and tetrodotoxin (TTX) of Korean pufferfish
Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2021 Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) and tetrodotoxin (TTX) are neurotoxins that display pharmacological activity that is similar to that of specific sodium channel blockers; they are the principle toxins involved in shellfish and puffer fish poisoning.

The impact of tetrodotoxin (TTX) on the gut microbiome in juvenile tiger pufferfish, Takifugu rubripes [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAbstractTetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin that accumulates in Takifugu rubripes, commonly known as pufferfish, through the ingestion of TTX-bearing organisms as part of their food chain. Although researchers believe that pufferfish use TTX to relieve stress, data are not currently available on how TTX affects the gut microbiota of pufferfish ...

Repurposing of thermally stable nucleic-acid aptamers for targeting tetrodotoxin (TTX). [PDF]
Comput Struct Biotechnol J, 2022 Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a lethal neurotoxin produced by the endosymbiotic bacteria in the gut of puffer fish. Currently, there is no effective and economical method to detect TTX, so it is very interesting to develop low-cost and high-sensitivity detection methods by using nucleic-acid aptamers as the recognition molecules.
