Interrogating the Venom of the Viperid Snake Sistrurus catenatus edwardsii by a Combined Approach of Electrospray and MALDI Mass Spectrometry [PDF]

, 2015
The complete sequence characterization of snake venom proteins by mass spectrometry is rather challenging due to the presence of multiple isoforms from different protein families.

Towards a New Reference Dataset for Northwest Arabian Pottery: A Preliminary Characterization of the Fabrics, Techniques, Shapes and Decoration of the Pre‐Islamic Pottery From Dadan (Third Millennium bce–Early First Millennium ce)

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The site of Dadan, in the al‐ʿUlā valley, is one of the major and longest‐settled ancient oasis settlements in northwest Arabia. As part of the Saudi‐French Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA), a study of its pre‐Islamic ceramic assemblage has been underway since 2020.

Suramin inhibits the early effects of PLA(2) neurotoxins at mouse neuromuscular junctions: a twitch tension study [PDF]

, 2011
Several phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) neurotoxins from snake venoms can affect acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction. In isolated nerve-muscle preparations three distinct phases have been described for this phenomenon: An initial transient ...

ANTITUMOR EFFECT OF SNAKE VENOMS

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins, 1996
The search for biological antitumor agents has been pursued for over half a century. Snake venom has been shown to possess a wide spectrum of biological activities. The objectives of the present review are to evaluate the existing controversies on this subject published in a number of papers and to propose probable explanations for the phenomena ...

Using life history to predict outcomes of conservation translocations of herpetofauna

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We collected data on key life history traits for all herpetofauna profiled in the IUCN Global Conservation Translocation Perspectives series to examine how life history can predict outcomes and difficulties of conservation translocations. The relationships we found provide important insights for conservation practitioners that can be used in the ...

Colubrid Venom Composition: An -Omics Perspective

Toxins, 2016
Snake venoms have been subjected to increasingly sensitive analyses for well over 100 years, but most research has been restricted to front-fanged snakes, which actually represent a relatively small proportion of extant species of advanced snakes ...

High‐throughput screen identifies MAS9 as a novel inhibitor of the C‐type lectin receptor‐2 (CLEC‐2)–podoplanin interaction

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose The C‐type lectin‐like receptor‐2 (CLEC‐2) is a platelet receptor for the endogenous ligand podoplanin. This interaction contributes to several (patho)physiological processes, such as lymphangiogenesis, preservation of blood and lymphatic vessel integrity organ development, and tumour metastasis.

Snake antivenom for snake venom induced consumption coagulopathy [PDF]

, 2015
Background Snake venom induced consumption coagulopathy is a major systemic effect of envenoming. Observational studies suggest that antivenom improves outcomes for venom induced consumption coagulopathy in some snakebites and not others. However, the
