Effects of microcystin-LR on Saccharomyces cerevisiae growth, oxidative stress and apoptosis

Microcystins (MC) are cyanotoxins occurring globally, known for causing acute hepatotoxicity in humans/animals, tumor promotion in animals and potential carcinogenicity. The mechanism of MC toxicity is considered a multi-pathway process involving the inhibition of protein phosphatases PP1/PP2A and t...
