The evolution and distribution of noxious species of scorpions (Arachnida: Scorpiones) [PDF]
This contribution attempts to bring some general information on the evolution and, in particular, on the geographic distribution of scorpion species noxious to humans. Since 95% of the scorpions incidents are generated by specimens of the family Buthidae C. L. Koch, the analysis will be limited to this familial group.

Abstract Lessons Learned Osimertinib has confirmed effectiveness in this real‐world population of patients with EGFR‐mutant advanced non‐small cell lung cancer. Thromboembolic events occur more frequently than previously reported, suggesting a thrombotic diathesis that requires further investigation. Patients with at least three metastatic sites, brain

Scorpions: A Presentation [PDF]
Scorpions, at least the species of the family Buthidæ whose venoms are better known, appear as animals that have evolved very little over time. The composition of their venoms is relatively simple as most toxins have a common structural motif that is found in other venoms from primitive species.

Apropos of the discussion on this point that has lately taken place in NATURE, will you allow me to say that I tried the experiment referred to therein a score of times at least during my long residence in India, and that I never saw the phenomenon so graphically delineated by Byron. My experiments were conducted in cholera and other camps, in the open

THE self-destruction of the scorpion when hard-pressed is unquestionable. I have on several occasions invited sceptics to witness the tragedy (1) in this part of Europe.

DOUBTS having been expressed at various times, even by learned naturalists, as to the reality of the suicide or self-destruction of the scorpion by means of its own poison, and these doubts having been again stated in NATURE, vol. xx. p. 553, by Mr. R. F.

Human synenkephalin [1–53] (hSYN), an analogue peptide of shrew saliva neurotoxins, was synthesized and its structural characteristics studied. Synthetic hSYN potently activated the T‐type voltage‐gated Ca channel hCav3.2 but did not paralyze mealworms. These findings offer new insight into neurological disorder treatment and evolutionary mechanisms of
