Antineurotoxic activity of Galactia glaucescens against Crotalus durissus terrificus venom

Fitoterapia, 2008
Ethanolic extract of leaves of Galactia glauscescens (GGE) at concentration of 100 and 500 microg/ml prevented the neuromuscular paralysis induced by Crotalus durissus terrificus venom on mouse phrenic nerve-diaphragm preparation.

Microvesicles in the venom of Crotalus durissus terrificus (Serpentes, Viperidae)

Toxicon, 2007
Microvesicles with electron-dense content are consistently observed by transmission electron microscopy on the luminal face of secretory cells of venom glands of viperid snakes. In this work, we evaluated their presence in Crotalus durissus terrificus venom glands and also in freshly collected venom.

Crotalus durissus terrificus Laurenti

1971
The karyotypes shown came from short term blood cultures. The female is heterogametic; the fourth pair of macrochromosomes consists of the sex chromosomes ZZ in the male, and ZW in the female. The karyotypes are from a male specimen of Minas Gerais and from a female of Sao Paulo, Brazil, both preserved in the Collection of the Instituto Butantan.

Compartment syndrome after South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus terrificus) envenomation

Clinical Toxicology, 2014
In order to report the outcome of a patient who developed compartment syndrome after South American rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus terrificus) envenomation, confirmed by subfascial pressure measurement and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).A 63-year-old male was admitted 1 h after being bitten on the right elbow by a "large" snake, which was not brought

Crotalus durissus terrificussnake venom regulates macrophage metabolism and function

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2001
AbstractIn the present study, we examined the effect of Crotalus durissus terrificus venom on rat macrophage metabolism and function. Two hours after subcutaneous injection of the venom, peritoneal resident (unstimulated), elicited (thioglycollate-stimulated), and activatedMycobacterium bovis strain bacille Calmette Guérin (BCG) macrophages were ...

Immunosuppresive role of principal toxin (crotoxin) of Crotalus durissus terrificus venom

Toxicon, 2004
The composition of the crotalic venom and the immunochemistry and/or pathophysiological characterization and main components were well studied. However, few studies have been carried out to investigate the effect of toxins of this venom on the development of the immune response.

Inhibitory potential of Crotalus durissus terrificus venom on measles virus growth

Toxicon, 2003
This paper presents the antiviral activity found in a snake with Crotalus durissus terrificus venom (Cdt), studied by use of microplate inhibition assay, using measles virus (MV). Cdt at concentrations below 100 microg/ml showed no cytotoxicity for Vero cells. This study shows the optimal conditions for cell treatment and infection.

A comparative study of biological activities of crotoxin and CB fraction of venoms from Crotalus durissus terrificus, Crotalus durissus cascavella and Crotalus durissus collilineatus

Toxicon, 2004
In Brazil, the Crotalus durissus terrificus subspecie is the most studied, particularly concerning its crotoxin. Crotoxin is the major toxic component of the South American rattlesnake Crotalus durissus venom. It is composed of two different subunits, CA called crotapotin and CB weakly toxic phospholipase A2 with high enzymatic activity. In this paper,
