Peptides, endotoxin tumor

C., Hwang, K., Goren, M. Peptides as requirement for immunotherapy of the guinea-pig line 10 tumor with endotoxins. Cancer Immunol Immunother 12 (1979) 91-96. 

Cyanobacteria toxins (sometimes referred to as blue green algal toxins) are represented in this entry by Aplysiatoxins, which are toxic to the skin, and anatoxin a (CAS 64285-06-9, C10H15NO) and anatoxin a (S) (very fast death factor), which are neurotoxins. Saxitoxin, discussed earlier, and neo-saxitoxin are both neurotoxins that may also be classified as cyanobacterial toxins. A large variety of other toxins is produced by cyanobacteria, but is not as well documented. These include lyngbyatoxin (dermatotoxic) cyclic peptides predominantly microcystins, nodularins, and cylindro-spermopsin (hepatotoxins) endotoxins and other substances as yet undescribed, including additional tumor promoters.
