Effects of salinity, temperature and nutrients on growth, cellular characteristics and yessotoxin production of Protoceratium reticulatum [PDF]
Protoceratium reticulatum as a producer of yessotoxin (YTX) and its analogues is common in several coastal environments. The YTX-producing strain of P. reticulatum, isolated from the German Bight (North Sea), was analysed to study toxin production under ...

Diarrhetic Shellfish Toxins and Other Lipophilic Toxins of Human Health Concern in Washington State
The illness of three people in 2011 after their ingestion of mussels collected from Sequim Bay State Park, Washington State, USA, demonstrated the need to monitor diarrhetic shellfish toxins (DSTs) in Washington State for the protection of human health ...

Yessotoxins, a Group of Marine Polyether Toxins: an Overview
Yessotoxin (YTX) is a marine polyether toxin that was first isolated in 1986 from the scallop Patinopecten yessoensis. Subsequently, it was reported that YTX is produced by the dinoflagellates Protoceratium reticulatum, Lingulodinium polyedrum and ...

Caspase activation and death induced by yessotoxin in HeLa cells
We have studied the death response induced by yessotoxin (YTX) in cultured HeLa cells, and have compared it to that triggered by okadaic acid (OA) in the same experimental system.

Key role of phosphodiesterase 4A (PDE4A) in autophagy triggered by yessotoxin [PDF]
Understanding the mechanism of action of the yessotoxin (YTX) is crucial since this drug has potential pharmacological effects in allergic processes, tumor proliferation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Solid phase extraction for removal of matrix effects in lipophilic marine toxin analysis by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]
The potential of solid phase extraction (SPE) clean-up has been assessed to reduce matrix effects (signal suppression or enhancement) in the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC¿MS/MS) analysis of lipophilic marine toxins.
