Is Yessotoxin the Main Phycotoxin in Croatian Waters? [PDF]
With the aim of investigating whether yessotoxin (YTX) is responsible for diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) events in Croatian waters, three different methods were combined: a modified mouse bioassay (MBA) that discriminates YTX from other DSP toxins,

Yessotoxin triggers ribotoxic stress [PDF]
This work tests the hypothesis that the marine algal toxin yessotoxin (YTX) can trigger ribotoxic stress response in L6 and BC3H1 myoblast cells. YTX exposure at a concentration of 100nM displays the characteristics of a ribotoxic stress response in such

Targets and Effects of Yessotoxin, Okadaic Acid and Palytoxin: A Differential Review
In this review, we focus on processes, organs and systems targeted by the marine toxins yessotoxin (YTX), okadaic acid (OA) and palytoxin (PTX). The effects of YTX and their basis are analyzed from data collected in the mollusc Mytilus galloprovincialis,

Yessotoxin inhibits phagocytic activity of macrophages.
Yessotoxin (YTX) is a sulphated polyether compound produced by some species of dinoflagellate algae, that can be accumulated in bivalve mollusks and ingested by humans upon eating contaminated shellfish.

Yessotoxin detection in bivalve molluscs: A case study from coastal mussel farms (Sardinia, Italy)
This work reports the first communication relating to the presence of yessotoxins in Mytilus galloprovincialis from coastal mussel farms (Sardinia, western Mediterranean) detected during 2008 and 2013 through a monitoring programme.

Yessotoxin as a Tool to Study Induction of Multiple Cell Death Pathways
This work proposes to use the marine algal toxin yessotoxin (YTX) to establish reference model experiments to explore medically valuable effects from induction of multiple cell death pathways. YTX is one of few toxins reported to make such induction.

In vitro effects of yessotoxin on a primary culture of rat cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Oral administration of yessotoxin (YTX) has been reported to induce ultrastructural alterations in rodent cardiac muscle. To study its effects on various fundamental aspects of cardiac muscle cells activity, that is, cell beating, Ca(2+) and cyclic ...
