Penn Cove, which receives nutrients from the nearby Skagit River and abundant sunshine during summer months due to its location in the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains, is the home of a commercial mussel farm which supplies shellfish to many coastal areas of the USA. Levels of domoic acid in mussels increased to 3 ppm on 6 and 10 July, corresponding to the observation of a brown algal bloom in Penn Cove. Four species of Pseudo-nitzschia (P. pungens, P. multiseries, P. australis, and P. pseudodelicatissima) were present in our samples from the cove, corresponding to levels of domoic acid in seawater ranging from 0.1-0.8 mirog l(-1) as measured by a receptor binding assay. The highest Pseudo-nitzschia concentration during the time of our sampling was 13 million cells per liter on 28 July. The bloom of Pseudo-nitzschia occurred after a period of strong discharge from the Skagit River and rain accompanied by elevated south and southeasterly winds. Stratification of the cove, providing optimal bloom conditions, was facilitated by weak winds, sunshine, and a freshwater lens at the mouth of the cove. The position of the Pseudo-nitzschia bloom was influenced by buoyancy fronts caused by exchange of water within the cove with that of Saratoga Passage. The decay of this bloom in Penn Cove was accompanied by decreasing nitrate levels at all measured depths. These and future observations aid in the development of a model for prediction of toxic bloom events in the shallow embayments of Puget Sound.","PeriodicalId":18777,"journal":{"name":"Natural toxins","volume":"6 3-4","pages":"113-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21093998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Luteoskyrin and rugulosin did not exhibit such a redox reaction, consuming dissolved oxygen and producing H2O2. The H2O2 production was significantly accelerated by superoxide dismutase (SOD), suggesting the production of superoxide anion during the reduction-autoxidation cycles of rubroskyrin. The thin layer chromatographic (TLC) and spectrophotometric analyses revealed that rubroskyrin was biotransformed by the NADH/microsomes system to stable product(s) which was no longer enzymatically reduced by the NADH/microsome system.

Although it is well established that AMPA receptors mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission at most excitatory synapses in the central nervous system, the role of the high affinity kainate receptors in synaptic transmission and neurotoxicity is not entirely clear. Kainate and domoate differ from the natural transmitter, L-glutamate, in their mode of activation of glutamate receptors; glutamate elicits rapidly desensitizing responses while the two neurotoxins elicit non-desensitizing or slowly desensitizing responses at AMPA receptors and some kainate receptors. The inability to produce desensitizing currents and the high affinity for AMPA and kainate receptors are undoubtedly important factors in kainate and domoate-mediated neurotoxicity. Mutagenesis studies on cloned glutamate receptors have provided insight into the molecular mechanisms responsible for these unique properties of kainate and domoate.","PeriodicalId":18777,"journal":{"name":"Natural toxins","volume":"6 3-4","pages":"153-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21093257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pucker of the five-membered ring in kainic acid was examined and compared with that of model compounds. In cyclopentane there is no barrier to pseudorotation, so that all puckered states coexist. In pyrrolidinium, the presence of a hetero-atom in the ring introduces a small barrier (about 0.6 kcal mol(-1)) to pseudorotation, separating two stable regions, A and B, which are equivalent by symmetry. In proline, the presence of the carboxylate group on C2 removes the symmetry but two stable conformational minima, A and B, remain. In kainic acid, the presence of side-chains on C3 and C4 introduces complications resulting in additional sub-minima in both regions, A and B. In solution, kainic acid is a complex mixture of conformers with comparable energies, because of the combination of several stable states of the pyrrolidinium ring with the torsional degrees of freedom arising from the two side-chains. The individual geometries, energies, and estimates of relative populations of these conformers were obtained from molecular dynamics simulations. The calculations were validated by a comparison of predicted inter-proton distances and vicinal proton coupling constants with the experimental quantities derived from NMR spectra.","PeriodicalId":18777,"journal":{"name":"Natural toxins","volume":"6 3-4","pages":"159-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21093258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both phytoplankton monitoring and shellfish flesh testing programmes have led to an extensive database which has helped link species of Pseudo-nitzschia to specific DA outbreaks. In 1994, P. pungens and P. turgidula were associated with DA contamination of shellfish, and cultured isolates of these species proved to be toxin producers. During 1996 the use of species-specific ribosomal RNA (rRNA)-targeted oligonucleotide probes and DA immunoassays led to the discovery of toxin production by P. fraudulenta, and showed the nontoxic P. heimii to be a major bloom former. Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima, P. pseudodelicatissima and P. multiseries, also identified using rRNA-targeted probes, have been linked to DA contamination of New Zealand shellfish; P. australis is the main cause of DA in scallops. The relative amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP) risk associated with different species, largely determined by DA immunoassays of cultured isolates, is now used by some regulators to refine risk assessments. Species identification is therefore vital so that shellfish growers, and health and industry officials, can make safe and economically sound harvesting decisions. The development and field trialling of DNA probes is proving invaluable in this context.","PeriodicalId":18777,"journal":{"name":"Natural toxins","volume":"6 3-4","pages":"105-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21093997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
