A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease (ADAM): Historical Overview of Their Functions [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Since the discovery of the first disintegrin protein from snake venom and the following identification of a mammalian membrane-anchored metalloprotease-disintegrin implicated in fertilization, almost three decades of studies have identified additional ...

Computational Insights into Flavonoids for ADAMTS-5 Exosite Inhibition in Knee Osteoarthritis: Docking, MD Simulations, and Machine Learning-Guided Structure Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules
The limited selectivity of most catalytic-site ADAMTS-5 inhibitors and the necessity to preserve aggrecan integrity in early-grade knee osteoarthritis require the development of selective aggrecanase inhibitors.

Examination of the Efficacy and Cross-Reactivity of a Novel Polyclonal Antibody Targeting the Disintegrin Domain in SVMPs to Neutralize Snake Venom [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Snake envenomation can result in hemorrhage, local necrosis, swelling, and if not treated properly can lead to adverse systemic effects such as coagulopathy, nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and cardiotoxicity, which can result in death.

Aprobation of platelet aggregation inhibitor from Echis multisquamatis snake venom in vitro, in vivo and ex vivo [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologia Acta, 2023
Snake venom-derived platelet aggregation inhibitors can be promising antiplatelet medications that can allow to avoid the risk of bleeding and treatment resistance, particularly in aspirin-resistant patients.

Effects of Blocking αvβ3 integrin by a recombinant RGD disintegrin on remodeling of wound healing after induction of incisional hernia in rats [PDF]

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2014
PURPOSE: Incisional hernia (IH) is characterized by defective wound healing process. Disba-01, a αvb3 integrin blocker has shown to control the rate of wound repair and therefore it could be a target for new wound healing therapies.The objective of the ...

Isolation of an Anti–tumour Disintegrin: Dabmaurin–1, a Peptide Lebein–1–like, from Daboia mauritanica Venom

open access: yesToxins, 2020
In the soft treatment of cancer tumours, consequent downregulation of the malignant tissue angiogenesis constitutes an efficient way to stifle tumour development and metastasis spreading. As angiogenesis requires integrin−promoting endothelial cell

Structure-Function Relationship of the Disintegrin Family: Sequence Signature and Integrin Interaction

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Disintegrins are small cysteine-rich proteins found in a variety of snake venom. These proteins selectively modulate integrin function, heterodimeric receptors involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interaction that are widely studied as therapeutic ...
