The Cyanotoxin 2,4-DAB Reduces Viability and Causes Behavioral and Molecular Dysfunctions Associated with Neurodegeneration in Larval Zebrafish

Rubia M. Martin et al.

Summary: Exposure to cyanotoxins, including 2,4-diaminobutyric acid (2,4-DAB) and N-(2-aminoethyl)glycine (AEG), has been found to cause neurotoxic effects in vivo, indicating their potential role in neurodegenerative diseases. These cyanotoxins also interact to enhance toxicity, with 2,4-DAB being the most potent.

Immunomodulatory Effects of Pure Cylindrospermopsin in Rats Orally Exposed for 28 Days

Leticia Diez-Quijada et al.

Summary: This study investigated the immunotoxicity of oral exposure to Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) in rats. The results showed that CYN mainly affected the immune modulation in the thymus and altered the expression of certain cytokines in the spleen. Additionally, CYN also had an impact on the serum levels of female rats.

Evaluation of the MIB-producing potential based on real-time qPCR in drinking water reservoirs

Md Suruzzaman et al.

Summary: A novel RT-qPCR method based on detecting the MIB synthesis gene was proposed to evaluate the MIB-producing potential in source water, showing a wider coverage than previous primer sets. The method was efficient, with proven amplification efficiency, LOD, and LOQ, and was further verified in field samples, suggesting its potential as an alternative warning tool for assessing MIB problems in source water.

Adverse role of colonial morphology and favorable function of microcystins for Microcystis to compete with Scenedesmus

Zeshuang Wang et al.

Summary: In eutrophic freshwaters, Microcystis becomes dominant in phytoplankton communities due to its unique traits and environmental factors. Colony morphology protects it from grazing and unicellular Microcystis has a competitive advantage in nutrient absorption and toxin production. However, its direct competition with green algae without grazing pressure shows that Scenedesmus eventually outcompetes Microcystis. Microcystins inhibit the growth of green algae but stimulate Microcystis, and phosphorus limitation enhances microcystin production. The role of colonies and microcystins in the competition between Microcystis and other phytoplankton is clarified.

Diversity, taxonomy, and evolution of archaeal viruses of the class Caudoviricetes

Ying Liu et al.

Summary: This study presents 37 new genomes of haloarchaeal tailed virus isolates, doubling the current number of sequenced arTVs. Analysis of 63 available complete genomes of arTVs proposes to classify them into 14 new families and 3 orders, revealing ancient divergence of archaeal and bacterial tailed viruses and common strategies of virus-host interactions. The survey of metagenomes using viral hallmark genes suggests a global architecture of the arTV community shaped through recurrent transfers between different biomes.

Immunotoxic Effects Induced by Microcystins and Cylindrospermopsin: A Review

Leticia Diez-Quijada et al.

Summary: The impact of cyanotoxins on the immune system is not yet fully elucidated, but studies have shown that they may lead to altered functions of immune cells and abnormal levels of cytokines. Reports on the immunotoxicity of MCs and CYN are scarce, indicating a need for further research in this area.

A Novel Jumbo Phage PhiMa05 Inhibits Harmful Microcystis sp.

Ampapan Naknaen et al.

Summary: The lytic cyanophage PhiMa05 showed high efficiency against microcystins-producing Microcystis strains, with a large burst size, short latent period, and high stability to environmental factors. PhiMa05's genome analysis revealed it is a jumbo phage with putative functional proteins associated with DNA metabolisms and host lysis. Comparative genome analysis indicated that PhiMa05 is unique and has the potential for controlling Microcystis bloom.
