A Case Report of Postpartum Hemorrhage Secondary to Snake Bite Envenomation: A Pathogenesis and Current Management Review. [PDF]

Case Rep Obstet Gynecol
Background Snakebite envenomation (SBE) is a tropical disease with significant global morbidity and mortality, particularly affecting low‐resource settings. During pregnancy, SBE poses unique challenges, increasing both maternal and fetal mortality. Limited access to antivenom and delayed treatment further worsen outcomes.

Antimicrobial peptidomes of Bothrops atrox and Bothrops jararacussu snake venoms [PDF]

Amino Acids, 2021
The worrisome emergence of pathogens resistant to conventional drugs has stimulated the search for new classes of antimicrobial and antiparasitic agents from natural sources. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), acting through mechanisms that do not rely on the interaction with a specific receptor, provide new possibilities for the development of drugs ...

Hematology, Clinical Biochemistry, and Blood Cell Morphology Features of Captive Bothrops jararaca From Southeast Brazil. [PDF]

Vet Clin Pathol
ABSTRACT Background Snakebite envenomation is a worldwide public health issue, particularly relevant to low and middle‐income countries. Bothrops spp. antivenom is needed for snakebite treatment, which requires the maintenance of healthy snakes in captivity.

Bothrops envenomation and liver hematoma.

European review for medical and pharmacological sciences, 2021
To describe a young patient who had a Bothrops envenomation (BE) and evolved with shock and subcapsular liver hematoma. Moreover, a review on BE and liver hematoma was also performed.A systematic screening of articles was conducted and all articles on the association between BE and liver hematoma were included.

Anurans or Mice: What is the Best Food Item for Young and Adults of Bothrops jararacussu (Lacerda, 1884) in Captivity? [PDF]

Zoo Biol
We use Bothrops jararacussu as a model to introduce three different prey items (mice, exotic anuran – bullfrog and native anurans) in captivity. Our experiments indicated that native anurans could be an interesting food alternative to B. jararacussu and other Bothrops species with an ontogenetic diet in captivity.

Heparin-antivenom association: differential neutralization effectiveness in Bothrops atrox and Bothrops erythromelas envenoming [PDF]

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2001
Heparin, in some regions of Brazil has been used in the treatment of bothropic accidents, but the data found in the literature are inconclusive about its effectiveness. The venoms of Bothrops atrox and of B. erythromelas were characterized according to their biological activities. The capacity of heparin in neutralizing these activities was tested with

Bioinformatics‐Driven Design and Evaluation of Recombinant Multi‐Epitope Immunogens Derived From Snake Venom Toxins as Potential Antivenom Candidates

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Snakebite envenomation is a major public health concern, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income regions where access to safe and effective antivenoms is limited. Traditional antivenoms, derived from immunization with crude venom, often trigger adverse reactions and lack specificity against key venom components.

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).
