Effects of PI and PIII Snake Venom Haemorrhagic Metalloproteinases on the Microvasculature: A Confocal Microscopy Study on the Mouse Cremaster Muscle [PDF]

, 2016
The precise mechanisms by which Snake Venom Metalloproteinases (SVMPs) disrupt the microvasculature and cause haemorrhage have not been completely elucidated, and novel in vivo models are needed.

A synthetic biology approach for consistent production of plant-made recombinant polyclonal antibodies against snake venom toxins [PDF]

, 2018
Antivenoms developed from the plasma of hyperimmunized animals are the only effective treatment available against snakebite envenomation but shortage of supply contributes to the high morbidity and mortality toll of this tropical disease.

Low-level laser therapy decreases local effects induced by myotoxins isolated from Bothrops jararacussu snake venom [PDF]

, 2010
The prominent myotoxic effects induced by Bothrops jararacussu crude venom are due, in part, to its polycationic myotoxins, BthTX-I and BthTX-II. Both myotoxins have a phospholipase A2 structure: BthTX-II is an active enzyme Asp-49 PLA2, while BthTX-I is

Anti-inflammatory activity of Blutaparon portulacoides ethanolic extract against the inflammatory reaction induced by Bothrops jararacussu venom and isolated myotoxins BthTX-I and II [PDF]

, 2009
This article reports the anti-inflammatory effect of Blutaparon portulacoides (B. portulacoides), specifically the ethanolic extract of its aerial parts, on the edema formation and leukocyte influx caused by Bothrops jararacussu (B.

Proof of concept: could snake venoms be a potential source of bioactive compounds for control of mould growth and mycotoxin production

Letters in Applied Microbiology, Volume 71, Issue 5, Page 459-465, November 2020., 2020
Significance and Impact of this Study: In all, 10 different snake venoms were examined as new sources of natural crop protection compounds. Using a Bioscreen C rapid assay optical density approach, it was possible to screen and identify snake venoms and fractions which could inhibit growth and/or mycotoxin production by five different mycotoxigenic ...

Envenomations by Bothrops and Crotalus snakes induce the release of mitochondrial alarmins. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
Skeletal muscle necrosis is a common manifestation of viperid snakebite envenomations. Venoms from snakes of the genus Bothrops, such as that of B. asper, induce muscle tissue damage at the site of venom injection, provoking severe local pathology which ...

Habitat determinants of golden‐headed lion tamarin (Leontopithecus chrysomelas) occupancy of cacao agroforests: Gloomy conservation prospects for management intensification

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 82, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020
Determining factors for the golden‐headed lion tamarin occupancy of cocoa agroforests, and potential consequences of the management intensification on the populations. Abstract Organismal distributions in human‐modified landscapes largely depend on the capacity of any given species to adapt to changes in habitat structure and quality. The golden‐headed
