Rattlesnake Envenomation in Three Dairy Goats
Case Reports in Veterinary Medicine, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Cases of rattlesnake envenomation in dairy goats are lacking. These cases present three dairy goats presented to a veterinary referral hospital for envenomation of Northern Pacific Rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus). Treatments and clinical characteristics reported are similar to those for llamas, alpacas, and horses.

Antitumoral Activity of Snake Venom Proteins: New Trends in Cancer Therapy
BioMed Research International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 For more than half a century, cytotoxic agents have been investigated as a possible treatment for cancer. Research on animal venoms has revealed their high toxicity on tissues and cell cultures, both normal and tumoral. Snake venoms show the highest cytotoxic potential, since ophidian accidents cause a large amount of tissue damage, suggesting a ...

Ethnopharmacological Significance of Eclipta alba (L.) Hassk. (Asteraceae)
International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Eclipta alba can be found growing wild in fallow lands of Bangladesh where it is considered as a weed by farmers. Traditional medicinal systems of the Indian subcontinent countries as well as tribal practitioners consider the plant to have diverse medicinal values and use it commonly for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory tract ...

BioMed Research International, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Bbil‐TX, a PLA2, was purified from Bothriopsis bilineata snake venom after only one chromatographic step using RP‐HPLC on μ‐Bondapak C‐18 column. A molecular mass of 14243.8 Da was confirmed by Q‐Tof Ultima API ESI/MS (TOF MS mode) mass spectrometry. The partial protein sequence obtained was then submitted to BLASTp, with the search restricted to PLA2 ...

Multilevel comparison of Indian Naja venoms and their cross-reactivity with Indian polyvalent antivenoms [PDF]
, 2023 Snake envenoming is caused by many biological species, rather than a single infectious agent, each with a multiplicity of toxins in their venom. Hence, developing effective treatments is challenging, especially in biodiverse and biogeographically complex

Snake Venom: Any Clue for Antibiotics and CAM?
Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 39-47, 2005., 2005 Lately several naturally occurring peptides presenting antimicrobial activity have been described in the literature. However, snake venoms, which are an enormous source of peptides, have not been fully explored for searching such molecules. The aim of this work is to review the basis of antimicrobial mechanisms revealing snake venom as a feasible ...

Assay of phospholipases A2 and their inhibitors by kinetic analysis in the scooting mode
Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 85-100, 1992., 1992 Several cellular processes are regulated by interfacial catalysis on biomembrane surfaces. Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) are interesting not only as prototypes for interfacial catalysis, but also because they mobilize precursors for the biosynthesis of eicosanoids and platelet activating factor, and these agents ultimately control a wide range of secretory ...

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2024.Abstract Objectives North American coral snake envenomations can result in life‐threatening neurotoxicity. Their bites are relatively rare, making large studies difficult. Using the National Poison Data System (NPDS), we sought to investigate the epidemiological trends and clinical outcomes associated with North American coral snake bites over a 17 ...
