Brevetoxin PbTx-3(Cat No.:T000082)is a water-soluble marine neurotoxin produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, a key organism in red tide events. As a member of the polyether brevetoxin family, PbTx-3 binds to site 5 of voltage-gated sodium channels, leading to persistent channel activation, altered ion flux, and neurotoxicity. It is less lipophilic than PbTx-2 but retains significant potency and bioactivity. PbTx-3 is a primary cause of neurotoxic shellfish poisoning (NSP) and is studied for its ecological, toxicological, and pharmacological implications, especially regarding marine ecosystem disruption and human health risks.
