Effect of Seaweed-Derived Fucoidans from Undaria pinnatifida and Fucus vesiculosus on Coagulant, Proteolytic, and Phospholipase A₂ Activities of Snake Bothrops jararaca, B. jararacussu, and B. neuwiedi Venom

Toxins
Background: Snakebite envenomation (SBE) causes diverse toxic effects in humans, including disability and death. Current antivenom therapies effectively prevent death but fail to block local tissue damage, leading to an increase in the severity of ...

Light Emitting Diode Photobiomodulation Enhances Oxidative Redox Capacity in Murine Macrophages Stimulated with <i>Bothrops jararacussu</i> Venom and Isolated PLA₂s. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int, 2022
Photobiomodulation therapy associated with conventional antivenom treatment has been shown to be effective in reducing the local effects caused by bothropic venoms in preclinical studies. In this study, we analyzed the influence of photobiomodulation using light emitting diode (LED) on the oxidative stress produced by murine macrophages stimulated with

[Cross neutralization of bothrops jararacussu venom by heterologous antivenoms].

Medicina, 1999
We have studied the immunochemical cross-reactivity and cross-neutralization of the lethal potency, hemorrhagic, necrotizing, procoagulant and (indirect) hemolytic activities of Bothrops jararacussu venom by the standard antivenoms produced in Argentina.

Hemiparesia esquerda consecutiva a empeçonhamento: Por Bothrops Jararacussu [PDF]

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1944
O A. apresenta uma observação de hemiparesia esquerda, consecutiva a envenenamento por Bothrops Jararacussu. É o segundo caso que publica, com idêntica etiologia; além das suas, há duas outras observações semelhantes, de Octávio de Magalhães.

Heparin and commercial bothropic antivenom against the paralyzing effect of Bothrops jararacussu snake venom [PDF]

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
The crude venom of Bothrops jararacussu (Bjssu) is known to induce muscular paralysis in vitro. Many studies have shown that various substances, including heparin, neutralize the damage caused by snake venom. In the present study, the ability of heparin (

Anurans or Mice: What is the Best Food Item for Young and Adults of Bothrops jararacussu (Lacerda, 1884) in Captivity? [PDF]

Zoo Biol
We use Bothrops jararacussu as a model to introduce three different prey items (mice, exotic anuran – bullfrog and native anurans) in captivity. Our experiments indicated that native anurans could be an interesting food alternative to B. jararacussu and other Bothrops species with an ontogenetic diet in captivity.

Antimicrobial peptidomes of Bothrops atrox and Bothrops jararacussu snake venoms [PDF]

Amino Acids, 2021
The worrisome emergence of pathogens resistant to conventional drugs has stimulated the search for new classes of antimicrobial and antiparasitic agents from natural sources. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), acting through mechanisms that do not rely on the interaction with a specific receptor, provide new possibilities for the development of drugs ...

Sequence of a cDNA encoding bothropstoxin I, a myotoxin from the venom of Bothrops jararacussu

Gene, 1995
With the aim of further understanding the structure/function relationships in the membrane-damaging activity of the Lys49 phospholipase A2 (Lys49-PLA2) sub-family, we used PCR (polymerase chain reaction) on total venom gland cDNAs from Bothrops jararacussu with degenerate oligodeoxyribonucleotides encoding the N- and C-termini of myotoxin II, a Lys49 ...

Comparative Hemostatic Effects of <i>Bothrops</i> spp. and <i>Daboia russelii</i> Venoms. [PDF]

Biochem Res Int
Venoms from Bothrops species and Daboia russelii are among the leading causes of venom‐induced coagulopathy and snakebite‐related deaths. In this study, we comparatively evaluated the biochemical composition and hemostatic effects of venoms from seven Bothrops species and D. russelii using protein profiling and functional coagulation assays.
