Animal Venoms as Peptide Libraries for the Discovery of Antiglioblastoma Agents

Biochemistry Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive and widely recognized types of brain tumors, characterized by significant cellular and molecular diversity and an inherently aggressive nature. The treatment remains highly challenging, with limited effectiveness and persistently low survival rates.

Clinical assessment and pathophysiology of Bothrops venom-related acute kidney injury: a scoping review [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases
Bothrops are one of the most common medically important snakes found in Latin America. Its venom is predominantly hemotoxic and proteolytic, which means that local lesion (edema and redness) and hemorrhagic symptoms are recurrent in envenoming by this ...

Transcriptomic Insights Into the Evolution of Snake Venom: Mechanisms, Diversity, and Adaptation

Scientifica, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Snake venoms are evolutionarily refined biochemical arsenals composed of diverse toxins with complex functional roles in predation, defense, and competition. Over the past 2 decades, transcriptomic approaches have transformed venom research by enabling high‐resolution insights into gene expression dynamics, molecular diversity, and the evolutionary ...

Reproductive Traits of Zoo‐Bred and Wild‐Bred Eastern Massasaugas (Sistrurus catenatus) at Species Survival Plan® Conservation Breeding Centres and Other Facilities

Zoo Biology, Volume 44, Issue 6, Page 572-588, November/December 2025.
Based on 94 Massasauga litters born in human care, mean litter size and number of live young per litter were higher in wild‐bred than in zoo‐bred litters. Wild‐bred litters more often contained live young than did zoo‐bred litters. In zoo‐bred litters, dam mass was positively associated with above‐average reproductive output.

Chronic kidney failure following lancehead bite envenoming: a clinical report from the Amazon region [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases
Background: Snakebite envenoming can be a life-threatening condition, for which emergency care is essential. The Bothrops (lancehead) genus is responsible for most snakebite-related deaths and permanent loss of function in human victims in Latin America.

Comparative characterization of Viperidae snake venoms from Perú reveals two compositional patterns of phospholipase A2 expression

Toxicon: X, 2020
Snake species within the Bothrops complex (sensu lato) are of medical relevance in Latin America, but knowledge on their venom characteristics is limited, or even unavailable, for some taxa.
