Prey specificity of predatory venoms
Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2253-2273, December 2024.ABSTRACT Venom represents a key adaptation of many venomous predators, allowing them to immobilise prey quickly through chemical rather than physical warfare. Evolutionary arms races between prey and a predator are believed to be the main factor influencing the potency and composition of predatory venoms.

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 30, Issue 8, August 2024.Batroxobin can inhibit platelet aggregation, degrade insoluble fibrinogen, dissolve soluble fibrin, and prolong TT and APTT which makes it play a stable role in the effective treatment of CVT. Batroxobin can slow down the changes in coagulation indicators, which makes it not increase the risk of adverse events, especially bleeding.

Snake venom toxins: Potential anticancer therapeutics
Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 666-685, May 2024.Abstract Snake venom contains a cocktail of compounds dominated by proteins and peptides, which make up the toxin. The toxin components of snake venom attack several targets in the human body including the neuromuscular system, kidney and blood coagulation system and cause pathologies. As such, the venom toxins can be managed and used for the treatment
