Role of crotoxin, a phospholipase A2 isolated from Crotalus durissus terrificus snake venom, on inflammatory and immune reactions

Mediators of Inflammation, 2001
Background: Crotoxin (CTX) is a potent neurotoxin from Crotalus durissus terrificus snake venom (CdtV) composed of two subunits: one without catalytic activity (crotapotin), and a basic phospolipase A2.

Endothelium‐ and epithelium‐derived novel endogenous catecholamines as modulators of the autonomic nervous system

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 15, Page 4091-4110, August 2026.
Abstract Catecholamines are classically viewed as neuronal transmitters and adrenal hormones; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that sources other than nerve fibres and adrenal medulla play a fundamental role in local organ regulation. Physiological paradoxes, such as preserved organ function after denervation or transplantation, challenge a ...

Generalist With a Narrow Niche Breadth: Feeding Ecology and Seed Germination Effectiveness of a Large Canid Within a Silvicultural Matrix

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Diet: The generalist canid exhibits a narrow niche breadth (0.12), consuming native plants (100% frequency) and animals (85%). Birds dominate animal prey (74%), peaking in the dry season, while Solanaceae plants dominate plant food (100%), peaking in the rainy season.

The origin of the diversity of crotoxin isoforms in the venom of Crotalus durissus terrificus [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1994
Crotoxin, the main toxin from the venom of the South American rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus, is a β‐neurotoxin which consists of the non‐covalent association of two subunits: a phospholipase A2 subunit B (CB), and a non‐enzymic subunit A (CA).
