The introduction of marine cone snail species from the coast of the Qeshm Island, contains conotoxin palliative pain in mice [PDF]
Conotoxins are small toxic peptides that are synthesized in cone snail venom ducts. Conotoxins have analgesic effects in models animal. In this study, the analgesic effects with no toxicity of Persian Gulf cone snails, Conus coronatus, and Conus frigidus

Solution structure of mu-conotoxin PIIIA, a preferential inhibitor of persistent tetrodotoxin-sensitive sodium channels [PDF]
Mu-conotoxins are peptide inhibitors of voltage-sensitive sodium channels (VSSCs). Synthetic forms of mu-conotoxins PIIIA and PIIIA-(2-22) were found to inhibit tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive VSSC current but had little effect on TTX-resistant VSSC current
