Unbiased high-throughput characterization of mussel transcriptomic responses to sublethal concentrations of the biotoxin okadaic acid
2015-09-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Diarrhetic Shellfish Poisoning (DSP) Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) represent a major threat for human consumers of shellfish. The biotoxin Okadaic Acid (OA), a well-known phosphatase inhibitor and tumor promoter, is the main responsible of acute DSP intoxications. Although several studies have described the molecular effects of high OA concentrations on sentinel organisms (e.g., bivalve mollusc...
