Animal Venoms have Potential to Treat Cancer.
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2019The resistance to chemotherapeutics by the cancerous cells has made its treatment more complicated. Animal venoms have emerged as an alternative strategy for anti-cancer therapeutics.

Entomo‐venomics: The evolution, biology and biochemistry of insect venoms
Toxicon, 2018The insects are a hyperdiverse class containing more species than all other animal groups combined—and many employ venom to capture prey, deter predators and micro‐organisms, or facilitate parasitism or extra‐oral digestion.

Insights into the evolutionary biology of venoms are leading to therapeutic advances Venomous animals have been admired and feared since prehistoric times, and their venoms have been used to both benefit and impair human health. In 326 BCE, Alexander the

Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2010
The review summarizes knowledge about ants that are known to sting humans and their venoms.Fire ants and Chinese needle ants are showing additional spread of range. Fire ants are now important in much of Asia. Venom allergens have been characterized and studied for fire ants and jack jumper ants.

Snake venoms are complex mixtures containing many different biologically active proteins and peptides. A number of these proteins act on components of the haemostatic system in humans. The paper focuses on those venom constituents that affect the blood coagulation pathway, endothelial cells and platelets. Several highly purified venom enzymes have been

Venom-Sweet-Venom: N-Linked Glycosylation in Snake Venom Toxins
Protein & Peptide Letters, 2009Protein glycosylation represents one of the most important post-translational events, and is a mean of diversifying a protein without recourse to the genome. The venoms produced by snakes contain an abundance of glycoproteins with N-linked carbohydrates.

AbstractObjective: Studies have noted the relatively common occurrence of positive urine results with the Commonwealth Serum Laboratories Venom Detection Kit (VDK) when testing patients with suspected snakebite who are not envenomed. Possible explanations have been false positive test results or subclinical envenoming.

Insect venoms applied by stings of social Hymenoptera, like honey bees, vespids or ants are -together with foods and drugs - the most frequent elicitors of anaphylaxis in humans. Besides taxonomy, the biology of the responsible social Hymenoptera is important: guidelines based upon its knowledge allow to reduce the risk of further stings in patients ...

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1992
It is not widely appreciated that mammals can be venomous in the manner of snakes and lizards. However, it was first demonstrated scientifically 50 years ago in the case of the American short-tailed shrew. Subsequently, similar evidence has been obtained from European shrews and the Haitian solenodon, but research in this area has been almost ...
