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
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].
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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 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.
