Microcystin-LR aerosol induces inflammatory responses in healthy human primary airway epithelium

Harmful algal blooms plague bodies of freshwater globally. These blooms are often composed of outgrowths of cyanobacteria capable of producing the heptapeptide Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) which is a well-known hepatotoxin.
