“Beyond Primary Sequence”—Proteomic Data Reveal Complex Toxins in Cnidarian Venoms [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2019
Abstract Venomous animals can deploy toxins for both predation and defense. These dual functions of toxins might be expected to promote the evolution of new venoms and alteration of their composition. Cnidarians are the most ancient venomous animals but our present understanding of their venom diversity is compromised by poor taxon ...

In vivo effects of cnidarian toxins and venoms

Toxicon, 2009
Cnidarians (Coelenterates), a very old and diverse animal phylum, possess a wide variety of biologically active substances that can be considered as toxins. Anthozoan toxins can be classified into two chemically very different groups, namely polypeptide toxins isolated from sea anemones and diterpenes isolated from octocorals.

Toxins and Venoms from Marine Cnidarians and Gastropods: Diversity and Potential Drugs Targeting the Ion Channels

Venoms and Toxins, 2022
: A diversity of marine invertebrates, such as cnidarians are rich sources of large bio-active molecules. This chemo-diversity of bio-active compounds has a promising potential in several biotechnological and therapeutic applications. On the basis of a comparative bibliographic approach, we intend in this review to present and discuss an overview of ...

Ipomoea pes-caprae (L.) R. Br (Convolvulaceae) relieved nociception and inflammation in mice – A topical herbal medicine against effects due to cnidarian venom-skin contact

Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2017
Ipomoea pes-caprae is known as bayhops, beach morning glory or goat's foot, and in Brazil as salsa-de-praia. Its leaves are used in worldwide folk medicine for the relief of jellyfish-stings symptoms. The literature only reports the neutralizing effects of nonpolar plant derived over jellyfish venoms, without validating the popular use or exploring the
