AI Article Synopsis

  • First-time detection of TTX and 11 related toxins in Cephalothrix mokievskii using advanced HPLC-MS/MS technology.
  • Notable differences in the TTX toxin profiles were found between Cephalothrix mokievskii and its similar species, Cephalothrix cf. simula.
  • The study highlights the geographical distribution of TTX-containing nemerteans and discusses potential impacts on marine ecosystems.

Article Abstract

We for the first time have recorded the presence of TTX and 11 of its analogues (TTXs) and determined the profile of these toxins by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) in Cephalothrix mokievskii, collected off the coast of Sakhalin Island and also revealed differences in the TTXs profile between C. mokievskii and sibling Cephalothrix cf, simula. We discuss the features of the TTXs profile in C. mokievskii, geographical distribution of TTX-containing nemerteans and its possible implication for toxification of marine bioresources.
