Pharmacological activities of a toxic phospholipase A isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper
(1986)
A toxic phospholipase A was isolated from the venom of Bothrops asper. It induced skeletal muscle damage, anticoagulant effects and edema in the foot pad. The toxin had an intravenous LD50 of 95 micrograms/16-18 g mouse ...
Isolation of basic myotoxins from Bothrops Moojeni and Bothrops Atrox snake venoms
(1990)
Three myotoxins, one from the venom of Bothrops atrox and two from the venom of B. moojeni, were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex C-25. The three toxins are basic proteins with an estimated mol. wt ...
Biological and biochemical activities of Vipera berus (European viper) venom
(1993-06)
Vipera berus is widely distributed throughout the northern part of Europe and Asia. Characterization of several toxic effects of its venom in the mouse, as well as of in vitro enzymatic activities was performed. Vipera ...
Muscle Tissue Damage Induced by the Venom of Bothrops asper: Identification of Early and Late Pathological Events through Proteomic Analysis
(2016-04-01)
The time-course of the pathological effects induced by the venom of the snake Bothrops asper in muscle tissue was investigated by a combination of histology, proteomic analysis of exudates collected in the vicinity of ...
Acute physiopathological effects of honeybee (Apis mellifera) envenoming by subcutaneous route in a mouse model
(2010)
Bee stings are a health concern in the Americas, where fatal envenomings due to massive
attacks by Africanized honeybees have been documented in the last decades. Most studies
on the toxic effects of honeybee venom in ...
Degenerative and regenerative changes in murine skeletal muscle after injection of venom from the snake Bothrops asper: a histochemical and immunocytochemical study.
(1991)
The degenerative and regenerative changes in murine skeletal muscle after injection of Bothrops asper venom were studied by histological, lectin histochemical and immunocytochemical techniques. According to our observations, ...
Extracts of Renealmia alpinia (Rottb.) MAAS Protect against Lethality and Systemic Hemorrhage Induced by Bothrops asper Venom: Insights from a Model with Extract Administration before Venom Injection
(2015)
Renealmia alpinia (Rottb.) MAAS, obtained by micropropagation (in vitro) and
wild forms have previously been shown to inhibit some toxic activities of Bothrops asper
snake venom if preincubated before injection. In this ...
Isolation and biochemical, functional and structural characterization of a novel L-amino acid oxidase from Lachesis muta snake venom
(2012-12-01)
The aim of this study was the isolation of the LAAO from Lachesis muta venom (LmLAAO) and its biochemical, functional and structural characterization. Two different purification protocols were developed and both provided ...
Histopathological and biochemical alterations induced by intramuscular injection of Bothrops asper (terciopelo) venom in mice
(1989)
The local and systemic pathological changes induced by an i.m. injection of 100 micrograms of Bothrops asper venom in mice were studied histologically and by following the changes in serum levels of enzymes, proteins, ATP ...
Comparison of venom composition and biological activities of the subspecies Crotalus lepidus lepidus, Crotalus lepidus klauberi and Crotalus lepidus morulus from Mexico
(2013-08-01)
The rock rattlesnakes Crotalus lepidus comprise a group (lepidus, klauberi, morulus and
maculosus) of poorly known mountain cold-tolerant snakes in Mexico. In particular, Crotalus
lepidus morulus is a snake endemic of ...
