Venom of Viperidae: A Perspective of its Antibacterial and Antitumor Potential.

Current Drug Targets, 2021
The emergence of multi-drug resistant bacteria and limitations on cancer treatment represent two important challenges in modern medicine. Biological compounds have been explored with a particular focus on venoms.

A new karst-dwelling, colorful pitviper (Viperidae: Trimeresurus) from northern Peninsular Thailand.

Zootaxa, 2021
We describe a colorful and distinctively patterned, karst-dwelling pitviper, Trimeresurus kuiburi sp. nov., from the isolated, coastal massif of Khao Sam Roi Yot in Kui Buri District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, in northern Peninsular Thailand. The new

Evolutionary interpretations of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor targeting venom effects by a clade of Asian viperidae snakes.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Toxicology & pharmacology : CBP, 2020
Ecological variability among closely related species provides an opportunity for evolutionary comparative studies. Therefore, to investigate the origin and evolution of neurotoxicity in Asian viperidae snakes, we tested the venoms of Azemiops feae ...

The sexual segment of the kidney of a tropical rattlesnake, Crotalus durissus (Reptilia, Squamata, Viperidae), and its relationship to seasonal testicular and androgen cycles

Journal of morphology, 2021
The sexual segment of the kidney (SSK) is a hypertrophied region of the nephron, which occurs in males of most squamate species that have been investigated, at least, during the active season. Many studies have shown that the SSK has a seasonal secretory

Viperidae Oppel 1811

2023
Family Viperidae Oppel, 1811 (3 species) Viperini Oppel, 1811: 47, 50 (type genus Vipera Laurenti, 1768: 99). A note on Trimeresurus spp. in Singapore Since the early description of arboreal Asian vipers, much confusion concerning their species delimitation and taxonomy has resulted due to substantial similarities and overlap in colour pattern ...

Morphological evolution in relationship to sidewinding, arboreality and precipitation in snakes of the family Viperidae

, 2021
Compared with other squamates, snakes have received relatively little ecomorphological investigation. We examined morphometric and meristic characters of vipers, in which both sidewinding locomotion and arboreality have evolved multiple times.

Accessing cryptic diversity in Neotropical rattlesnakes (Serpentes: Viperidae: Crotalus) with the description of two new species.

Zootaxa, 2020
Members of the Crotalus durissus species complex are widely distributed from Mexico to Argentina in areas with mainly seasonally dry tropical deciduous forest. Although four species (C. culminatus, C. durissus, C. simus and C.
