Description

Azaspiracid-2 is a potent marine toxin belonging to the azaspiracids group, which are a class of polyether toxins known for contaminating shellfish and posing significant risks to human health. Originally discovered in Ireland in 1995 after incidents of shellfish poisoning, azaspiracid-2 has since been identified in various marine environments worldwide. It disrupts cellular processes, affects cell signaling pathways, and is a regulator of intracellular cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) and calcium levels.
