The Sequence and Three-Dimensional Structure Characterization of Snake Venom Phospholipases B
Snake venom phospholipases B (SVPLBs) are the least studied enzymes. They constitute about 1% of Bothrops crude venoms, however, in other snake venoms, it is present in less than 1%.

Abstract Background Characterization of platelet gel (PG) from different blood sources and preparation methods remains incomplete. Study Design and Methods This study compared the weight, growth factor (GF) content, and gelation dynamics (via rotational thromboelastometry, ROTEM) of allogeneic PG prepared from adult blood (AB) and cord blood (CB ...

We confirmed the ability of the triterpenoid betulin to protect against neurotoxicity caused by Bothrops jararacussu snake venom in vitro in mouse isolated phrenic nerve‐diaphragm (PND) preparations and examined its capability of in vivo protection using the rat external popliteal/sciatic nerve‐tibialis anterior (EPSTA) preparation.

P-I metalloproteinases and L-amino acid oxidases from Bothrops species inhibit angiogenesis
Background: Snake venoms are composed of pharmacologically active proteins that are evolutionarily diverse, stable and specific to targets. Hence, venoms have been explored as a source of bioactive molecules in treating numerous diseases.

Understanding how animals interact with their environment across life stages is key for conservation. In our long‐term study of the Blunt‐headed tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa) in the tropical rainforest of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, we tracked over 240 individuals and found age‐related differences in environmental preferences.
