STUDIES ON CENTIPEDE ECOLOGY (MYRIAPODA: CHILOPODA) A BIBLIOMETRIC REVIEW

open access: yesCurrent Trends in Natural Sciences, 2023
As predatory soil macroinvertebrates, centipedes are often considered groups used for soil community studies. However, research explicitly targeting centipede ecology remains relatively scarce.

First records of Dendrothereua linceci (Wood, 1867) (Chilopoda, Scutigeromorpha, Scutigeridae) in Colombia [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2022
We collected nine scutigeromorph centipede specimens in Colombia, which are the first records of Dendrothereua linceci (Wood, 1867) from the country and South America, expanding the the known distribution of the species. With these data, one more species

Scorpion and centipede alleviates severe asthma through M2 macrophage-derived exosomal miR-30b-5p

open access: yesAging, 2022
Asthma is one of the most common chronic inflammatory diseases. Although the scorpion and centipede (SC) significantly ameliorates asthma and changes exosomal miRNAs, the molecular mechanism is still obscure.

Convergent evolution of defensive appendages – a lithobiomorph-like centipede with a scolopendromorph-type ultimate leg from about 100 million-year-old amber

open access: yesPalaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments, 2023
Centipedes are predatory representatives of the group Myriapoda and important components of the soil and leaf-litter fauna. The first pair of trunk appendages is modified into venom-injecting maxillipeds in all centipedes.

When food fights back: skull morphology and feeding behavior of centipede-eating snakes.

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2023
Feeding is a complex process that involves an integrated response of multiple functional systems. Animals evolve phenotypic integration of complex morphological traits to covary and maximize performance of feeding behaviors.

Centipede envenomation [PDF]

open access: yesWilderness & Environmental Medicine, 2001
Five episodes of envenomation by centipedes in 2 patients are reported. These arthropods are fast-moving, frightening in appearance to some, and may display aggressive behavior. However, stings from these centipedes, like most found worldwide, caused no serious morbidity or mortality.

Thrombocytopenia Developing After Centipede Bite

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine, 2022
Centipede bites have been reported rarely in humans. The mechanism of centipede toxin is not fully understood. Skin reactions develop more in centipede bites. In this text, we will present a case that developed thrombocytopenia after a centipede bite. An

Phylogenetic analyses suggest centipede venom arsenals were repeatedly stocked by horizontal gene transfer

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Venoms have evolved over a hundred times in animals. Venom toxins are thought to evolve mostly by recruitment of endogenous proteins with physiological functions.

CENTIPEDE VENOM TOXINS AND ITS BIOMEDICAL AND PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2022
The present review article explains venoms from various centipede species with their biomedical and pharmacological properties. Centipede venom is a natural source of bioactive proteins, peptides and other small molecules.
