Ligation of the abdominal esophagus decreases scorpion toxin-induced gastric secretion in rats Ligadura do esôfago abdominal diminui a secreção gástrica induzida por toxina de escorpião em ratos

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2004
PURPOSE: Scorpion toxin purified from Tityus serrulatus venom (Tx) induces an increase in volume, acidity and pepsin secretion in the gastric juice of rats. Ligation of oesophagus has been shown to reduce the acid gastric secretion in rats.

Role of Antimicrobial Peptides in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by barrier dysfunction, immune dysregulation, and microbial dysbiosis. Recent studies have highlighted the multifaceted roles of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) both as innate defenders against microbial invasion and as regulators of immune responses and skin barrier ...

[Scorpion toxins and defensins].

open access: yesComptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales, 1998
Les venins de scorpion contiennent un grand nombre de neurotoxines peptidiques qui constituent un ensemble de familles molécu­laires à haut degré de polymorphisme, mais qui ont en commun une architecture semblable. Cette architecture se retrouve dans des peptides antibactériens circulants de la famille des défensines, qui s'apparentent tout ...

Art v 1 and Amb a 4 Co‐Sensitization Identifies Italian Patients at Risk for Mugwort‐Celery‐Spice Syndrome

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Three molecular profiles identified among Art v 1/Amb a 4‐sensitized patients: Art v 1 monosensitization, Amb a 4 monosensitization, and dual sensitization to both allergens. Art v 1 monosensitization was predominantly associated with allergic rhinitis, reflecting a classical airborne allergy pattern.

Impact of Sequential Ramucirumab Plus Docetaxel After PD‐1 Inhibitors on Anti‐PD‐1 Antibody‐Bound T‐Cell Dynamics and Clinical Outcomes

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Ramucirumab (RAM) plus docetaxel (DOC) after PD‐1 inhibitors showed clinical activity, with responders exhibiting maintained anti–PD‐1 (IgG4+)‐bound CD8+ T cells and decreased IgG4+ Tregs. A sequential strategy of administering RAM plus DOC during persistent anti–PD‐1 antibody binding may be beneficial in patients with advanced non‐small cell lung ...

A potent and Kv1.3-selective analogue of the scorpion toxin HsTX1 as a potential therapeutic for autoimmune diseases

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2014
HsTX1 toxin, from the scorpion Heterometrus spinnifer, is a 34-residue, C-terminally amidated peptide cross-linked by four disulfide bridges. Here we describe new HsTX1 analogues with an Ala, Phe, Val or Abu substitution at position 14.

The Snake with the Scorpion’s Sting: Novel Three-Finger Toxin Sodium Channel Activators from the Venom of the Long-Glanded Blue Coral Snake (Calliophis bivirgatus)

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Millions of years of evolution have fine-tuned the ability of venom peptides to rapidly incapacitate both prey and potential predators. Toxicofera reptiles are characterized by serous-secreting mandibular or maxillary glands with heightened levels of ...

Human Dorsal Root Ganglia Neuronal Cell Line to Study Nociceptive Signaling: A New Pipeline for Pain Therapy

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
The nociceptive properties of differentiated human HD10.6 cells were characterized by multiple approaches (A). Peripheral sensitization was induced within HD10.6 cells in response to an inflammatory cocktail (B), modeling nociceptors in a chronic pain state.
