Concentrating ability of the Bothrops jararaca gallbladder
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 1999Abstract Total sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride and osmolality were measured in plasma and gallbladder bile of the snake Bothrops jararaca under normal hydration conditions or in the presence of chronic challenges of hydromineral balance.

Sexual dimorphism in venom of Bothrops jararaca(Serpentes: Viperidae)
Toxicon, 2006Bothrops jararaca is an abundant snake in Brazil, and its venom has been studied exhaustively. The species exhibits adult size dimorphism in which female are larger. We registered the growth in Snout-Vent Length and weight of one litter (with 11 females and 12 males). We compared growth curves and venom profile between male and female of B. jararaca in

The kininases of Bothrops jararaca plasma.
Acta physiologica latino americana, 1987Evidence is presented to suggest that kininase activity of Bothrops jararaca plasma is due to the presence of at least three distinct enzymes: a carboxypeptidase B type enzyme, similar to that found in human plasma in that its activity is enhanced by Co2+ (1 X 10(-4) M); a carboxypeptidase B type enzyme whose activity is unaffected by Co2+, and an ...

Effects of catecholamines on the isolated aorta of the snake Bothrops jararaca
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 19921. Effects of catecholamines in snakes have been examined using an aorta preparation isolated from Bothrops jararaca. Adrenaline, noradrenaline and isoprenaline produced dose-dependent contractions on this preparation. The relative potency was adrenaline greater than noradrenaline greater than isoprenaline. 2.

Behaviour of the ZW sex bivalent in the snake Bothrops jararaca
Chromosoma, 1981The behavior of the ZW sex bivalent was investigated in female meiosis of the poisonous snake Bothrops jararaca. The Z is euchromatic and synapses end to end with the W. The W chromosome shows a heterochromatic segment distally in the short arm. Pairing occurs between the long arm of the W and the slightly longer arm of the mediocentric Z.

Bradykinin-Potentiating Peptides from the Venom of Bothrops Jararaca
Pharmacological Research Communications, 1969Bradykinin-potentiating factor (BPF) is a mixture of snake venom peptides which potentiate some of the pharmacological actions of bradykinin in vitro and in vivo (Ferreira, 1965; 1966). In this communication we describe the isolation of nine biologically active peptides from Bothrops jararaca venom, present the amino acid sequence determination of the ...

Distribution of somatostatin immunoreactivity in the brain of the snake Bothrops jararaca
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2006The distribution of perikarya and fibers containing somatostatin was studied in the brain of the snake Bothrops jararaca by means of immunohistochemistry using an antiserum against synthetic somatostatin. Immunoreactive perikarya and fibers were localized in telencephalic, diencephalic and mesencephalic areas.

Blood Coagulation Inhibitor in a Snake Plasma (Bothrops jararaca)
Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 1973SummaryExperiments with plasmas samples from the snake B. jararaca and X. merremii have shown that the two differ markedly with respect to their reaction to bovine thrombin. The plasma of X. merremii appears to react in a manner very similar to that of normal human plasma both using the thrombin clotting test and using the antithrombin III assay of ...

Galanin-like immunoreactivity in the brain of the snake Bothrops jararaca
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2006The distribution of galanin-like immunoreactive perikarya and nerve fibers in the brain of the snake Bothrops jararaca was studied by means of immunohistochemistry using an antiserum against porcine galanin. Immunoreactive neurons were only detected in the infundibular recess nucleus.
