Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.We present the first records of the arid‐adapted Oman saw‐scaled vipers feeding on fish. Apon further review we identified 14 fish‐eating vipers globally. These findings suggest that fish may be more common in the diets of vipers than realized, although still rare, and likely to be region‐ or season‐specific prey.

Modelagem de nicho ecológico de bothrops atrox e bothrops marajoensis
, 2023 The evolution of climatic niches happens more slowly than speciation processes, meaning that closely related species may end up sharing the same ecological parameters.

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.

Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review
Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...

Aislamiento y caracterización parcial de una miotoxina del veneno de la serpiente Bothrops atrox (Ophidia: Viperidae) [PDF]
, 2004 A myotoxin from Bothrops atrox snake venom was purified by cationic exchange on CM-Sephadex C-50 with 0,05M ammonium acetate pH 7. The myotoxin is a basic protein and by gel filtration and PAGE-SDS was demonstrated that protein has a molecular weight of ...

Snake Venom Protease Detection and Inhibition in Serum
ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.A fluorescence assay enables sensitive detection of the activities of snake venom metalloproteases (SVMP) and serine proteases (SVSP) from viper venoms in buffer and serum. In combination with effective low‐molecular‐weight inhibitors such as ilomastat and nafamostat, this approach offers new prospects for the rapid diagnosis and adjunctive therapy of ...
