Exploring high molecular weight components in Tityus serrulatus venom.

Toxicon
Our study identified high-molecular-weight compounds from Tityus serrulatus venom (TsV), and most of them have not yet been well explored. TsV was fractionated using FPLC system with different columns, analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and characterized by MALDI-TOF/TOF.

Plant cytogenetics tests can predict toxic effects on human cells: genotoxic and mutagenic effects of Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom on vegetal and human cells

Ciência e Natura, 2023
The effects of Tityus serrulatus venom was accessed on the cell cycle and genetic material of the Lactuca sativa L. and compared with the damages to human leukocytes, in order to evaluate the genotoxic and mutagenic potential of toxins on cell types very

Novel components of Tityus serrulatus venom: A transcriptomic approach.

Toxicon, 2020
Several research groups have studied the components produced by the venom gland of the scorpion Tityus serrulatus, which has one of the most lethal venoms in the world. Various methodologies have been employed to clarify the complex mechanisms of action of these components, especially neurotoxins and enzymes.

Venom variability among several Tityus serrulatus specimens

Toxicon, 1997
Individual differences in venom composition among several Tityus serrulatus specimens collected in the same area were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Polyclonal antibodies raised against whole venom and against the alpha-type (toxin IV-5 or Ts IV) and the beta-type toxin (toxin gamma or Ts VII) were used to study specific ...

Captive Maintenance and Venom Extraction of Tityus serrulatus (Brazilian Yellow Scorpion) for Antivenom Production.

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2023
Scorpion envenomation is a public health problem in several tropical and subtropical countries. Tityus serrulatus Lutz and Mello, 1922 (Brazilian yellow scorpion) are responsible for approximately 150,000 envenoming cases per year in Brazil, of which 10%

Tityus serrulatus Scorpion Venom and Toxins: An Overview

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2009
Tityus serrulatus is considered the most dangerous scorpion in South America and responsible for most of the fatal cases. This review will focus on Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom (Tsv), its long-chain Na(+)-channel toxins (NaTx), which include alpha- and beta-neurotoxins, short-chain K(+)-channel toxins (KTx), hyaluronidase, proteases and other ...

Asexual reproduction in a sexual population of the Brazilian yellow scorpion (Tityus serrulatus, Buthidae) as evidence of facultative parthenogenesis

The journal of arachnology, 2021
. Most Brazilian yellow scorpion (Tityus serrulatus Lutz & Mello, 1922) populations reproduce by parthenogenesis, and only a few sexually reproducing populations are known. It has been suggested that the parthenogenesis in T.

Tityus serrulatus venom peptidomics: Assessing venom peptide diversity

Toxicon, 2008
MALDI-TOF-TOF and de novo sequencing were employed to assess the Tityus serrulatus venom peptide diversity. Previous works has shown the cornucopia of molecular masses, ranging from 800 to 3000Da, present in the venom from this and other scorpions species. This work reports the identification/sequencing of several of these peptides. The majority of the
