Differential effects of marimastat and prinomastat on the metalloprotease activity of various snake venoms

Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease, responsible for approximately 140,000 deaths globally each year. Vipers and elapid snakes represent the most significant snake families in medical contexts, exhibiting a variety of venom components ...

The Clot Thickens: Differential Coagulotoxic and Cardiotoxic Activities of Anguimorpha Lizard Venoms

Despite their evolutionary novelty, lizard venoms are much less studied in comparison to the intense research on snake venoms. While the venoms of helodermatid lizards have long been assumed to be for defensive purposes, there is increasing evidence of ...

Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Antimicrobial α-Helical Peptides Found in Solitary Wasp Venoms and Their Interactions with Model Membranes

, 2019
Solitary wasps use their stinging venoms for paralyzing insect or spider prey and feeding them to their larvae. We have surveyed bioactive substances in solitary wasp venoms, and found antimicrobial peptides together with some other bioactive peptides ...

5\u27-Nucleotidase and Thrombin-Like Activities of Selected Crotalid Venoms [PDF]

, 1995
Thrombin-like activities were not observed inCrotalus basiliscus, C. molossus and C. scutulatus scutulatus crude venoms. 5\u27-Nucleotidase specific activities of 0.863, 0.273 and 5.520 units/mg of crude venom protein were observed inC.
