Bothrops asper: Beauty and peril in the Neotropics
Toxicon, 2009 Snakes have inspired fascination and fear to humans since ancient times, as reflected by the common presence of these reptiles in the mythology of many civilizations. Such sense of awe has been associated to the impact that snakebite envenomation has had worldwide, to the amazing life patterns and adaptations of these reptiles and, more recently, to ...

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Three forested dispersal corridors have been proposed within the diagonal of open/dry landscapes in South America and the relative importance of each one has been the subject of debate for forest organisms. We analysed the biogeographical history of three snake genera (Bothrops, Philodryas, and Micrurus) from different families (Viperidae ...

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Snake envenomation remains a critical global public health challenge. In Brazil, the genus Bothrops is responsible for most accidents, typically resulting in coagulopathy, hemorrhage, and renal failure. Despite its clinical prevalence, the molecular mechanisms driving plasma protein disturbances remain poorly understood.

Engineering Antivenom: Research Progress and Future Directions in Snakebite Envenoming Therapy
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1562, Issue 1, August 2026.Snakebite envenoming therapy is evolving from plasma‐derived antivenoms toward rationally engineered therapeutics. Advances in toxicovenomics, structural biology, antibody engineering, computational protein design, recombinant expression, small‐molecule inhibitors, and diagnostics are enabling toxin‐centric development of safer, more effective, and ...

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 7, Page 1403-1426, July 2026.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.
