Beschreibung

Microcystin RR is a cyclic peptide produced by algae, which was shown to have inhibitory effects on the activity of glutathione reductase and xanthine oxidase. Microcystin RR has been found to cause cell lysis in a variety of cells, including human erythrocytes. It also inhibits the activity of several enzymes, such as ATP synthase and succinate dehydrogenase. The toxicological studies show that Microcystin RR is not easily absorbed through the skin and does not cause systemic toxicity or death in mice. It also has a significant effect on the mitochondrial membrane potential in cells, which may be due to its ability to increase reactive oxygen species production.
