Article Synopsis
- Radiocystis fernandoi produces microcystin, a harmful toxin that damages the liver in tropical fish, with varying effects depending on exposure duration.
- The study found that acute exposure led to decreased activity in antioxidant enzymes, while subchronic exposure showed some recovery in liver function despite increased DNA damage.
- Histopathological changes in the liver indicated dysfunction in response to both acute and subchronic microcystin exposure, with different responses to specific types of microcystins.
