Differences between Tityus serrulatus (Ts) and Tityus obscurus (To) venom.
(A) 1D SDS-PAGE of 30μg of each venom, stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue R. (B) Western blotting using horse anti-Tityus serrulatus venom serum. Immunostained western blotting showing that anti-Tityus serrulatus venom serum did not recognize all ...

Scorpion Venom and the Inflammatory Response
Scorpion venoms consist of a complex of several toxins that exhibit a wide range of biological properties and actions, as well as chemical compositions, toxicity, and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics. These venoms are associated with high morbility and mortality, especially among children. Victims of envenoming by a scorpion suffer a

Immunomodulatory Effects of the Tityus serrulatus Venom on Murine Macrophage Functions in Vitro
Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom (TSV) consists of a very complex mixture of molecules and demonstrates significant immunomodulatory activities capable of stimulating immune functions in vivo. The purpose of this study was to compare the crude TSV with fractionated toxins extracted from this venom in order to determine which toxin(s) presented ...

ABSTRACT Aim Beta diversity analyses clarify mechanisms structuring ecological communities, but their multidimensional facets remain poorly explored in arthropods. Here, we quantified taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional beta diversity in scorpions, partitioned these facets into species replacement and richness differences, and evaluated the ...

Effect of Tityus serrulatus venom on cytokine production and the activity of murine macrophages
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Tityus serrulatus venom (TSV) on murine peritoneal macrophages evaluated in terms of activation. The effects of crude TSV were analysed by detection of cytokines, oxygen intermediate metabolites (H2O2) and nitric oxide (NO) in supernatants of peritoneal macrophages.
