Isolation and characterization of synergistic hemorrhagins from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper

open access: yesToxicon, 1993
Three hemorrhagic factors (BaH1, BH2 and BH3) were isolated from the venom of Bothrops asper by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200, DEAE-Sepharose chromatography, metal chelate affinity chromatography and hydrophobic interaction chromatography. They contain 55% of the total hemorrhagic activity of the whole venom when they are mixed, but lose almost ...

In Silico Molecular Studies of Antiophidic Properties of the Amazonian Tree Cordia nodosa Lam.

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
We carried out surveys on the use of Cordia nodosa Lam. in the jungles of Bobonaza (Ecuador). We documented this knowledge to prevent its loss under the Framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Nagoya Protocol.

The venom of Bothrops asper from Guatemala: toxic activities and neutralization by antivenoms

open access: yesToxicon, 2001
Bothrops asper is responsible for approximately half of the snakebite envenomations in Central America. Despite its medical relevance, only the venom of Costa Rican populations of this species has been studied to some detail, and there is very little information on intraspecies variability in venom composition and toxicity. Venom of B.

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

open access: yesToxins, 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.

The amino acid sequence of a myotoxic phospholipase from the venom of Bothrops asper

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1990
A myotoxic, basic phospholipase A2 (pI greater than 9.5) with anticoagulant activity has been purified from the venom of Bothrops asper, and its amino acid sequence determined by automated Edman degradation. It is distinct from the B. asper phospholipase A2 known as myotoxin I [Lomonte, B. and Gutierrez, J.

Biochemistry and toxicology of toxins purified from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper

open access: yesToxicon, 2009
The isolation and study of individual snake venom components paves the way for a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of envenomings--thus potentially contributing to improved therapeutic modalities in the clinical setting--and also opens possibilities for the discovery of novel toxins that might be useful as tools for dissecting cellular and ...
