Isolation and characterization of “Reprotoxin”, a novel protein complex from Daboia russelii snake venom

Biochimie, 2008
In snake venoms, non-covalent protein-protein interaction leads to protein complexes with synergistic and, at times, distinct pharmacological activities. Here we describe a new protein complex containing phospholipaseA(2) (PLA(2)), protease, and a trypsin inhibitor. It is isolated from the venom of Daboia russelii by gel permeation chromatography, on a

Unveiling the complexities of Daboia russelii venom, a medically important snake of India, by tandem mass spectrometry

Toxicon, 2015
Composition of Indian Russell's viper (Daboia russelii russelii) venom, a medically important snake and member of "Big Four" snakes of India was done by gel filtration chromatography followed by tandem mass spectrometry. The MS/MS analyses of tryptic digested gel filtration peaks divulged the presence of 63 different proteins belonging to 12 families ...

Evaluation of cultivable aerobic bacterial flora from Russell's viper (Daboia russelii) oral cavity

Microbial Pathogenesis, 2019
Snake mouths contain a wide range of bacteria. Identifying these bacteria in snakes is very important to obtain an understanding of the etiological agents of secondary infections that may result from accidents during handling and/or snake bites. The present study aims to determine the pattern of oral bacterial flora of nine healthy Russell's vipers ...

Mapping the Immune Cell Microenvironment with Spatial Profiling in Muscle Tissue Injected with the Venom of Daboia russelii. [PDF]

Toxins (Basel), 2023
Pathological and inflammatory events in muscle after the injection of snake venoms vary in different regions of the affected tissue and at different time intervals. In order to study such heterogeneity in the immune cell microenvironment, a murine model of muscle necrosis based on the injection of the venom of Daboia russelii was used. Histological and

Thrombotic microangiopathy, hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura: Rare manifestations of Russell’s viper (Daboia russelii) envenoming in Sri Lanka [PDF]

Asia Pacific Journal of Medical Toxicology, 2021
Background: Russell’s viper (Daboia russelii) of Family Viperidae is a highly venomous snake in Sri Lanka and is responsible for the most snakebite deaths. It commonly causes coagulopathy and neuroparalysis. Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) including the

Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Captive Snakes, Bangladesh. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study documented gastrointestinal parasitic infections in captive venomous and non‐venomous snakes in Bangladesh for the first time, finding an overall prevalence of 39.1%, with helminths more common than protozoa. Non‐venomous snakes and juveniles were most susceptible, while controlled terrarium housing reduced risk, highlighting the need for ...

Analytical Size Exclusion Chromatography Coupled with Mass Spectrometry in Parallel with High-Throughput Venomics and Bioassaying for Venom Profiling

Toxins, 2023
Modern analytical size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a suitable technique to separate venom toxin families according to their size characteristics. In this study, a method was developed to separate intact venom toxins from Bungarus multicinctus and ...

Comparative Snake Venom Analysis for Facilitating Wildlife Forensics: A Pilot Study

Journal of Analytical Methods in Chemistry, 2022
Confirm and authentic identification of species is required for the implementation of wildlife laws in cases of illegal trafficking of snake venoms. Illegally trafficked snake venom might be misidentified with other drugs of abuse, and sometimes, the ...
