Characterization of events associated with apoptosis/anoikis induced by snake venom metalloproteinase BaP1 on human endothelial cells
(2005-02)
Human endothelial EA.hy926 cells were incubated with BaP1, a hemorrhagic metalloproteinase purified from Bothrops asper snake venom. Since the first hour of incubation with the proteinase, cells started showing DNA ...
Tissue Localization and Extracellular Matrix Degradation by PI, PII and PIII Snake Venom Metalloproteinases: Clues on the Mechanisms of Venom-Induced Hemorrhage
(2015-04-24)
Snake venom hemorrhagic metalloproteinases (SVMPs) of the PI, PII and PIII classes were
compared in terms of tissue localization and their ability to hydrolyze basement membrane
components in vivo, as well as by a ...
Trends in Snakebite Envenomation Therapy: Scientific, Technological and Public Health Considerations
(2007)
The therapy of snakebite envenomation has been based on the parenteral administration of animal-derived antivenoms. Despite the success of this treatment at reducing the impact of snakebite mortality and morbidity, mostly ...
Blister formation and skin damage induced by BaP1, a haemorrhagic metalloproteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper
(1998-08)
Blister formation and skin damage can be induced by BaP1, a haemorrhagic metalloproteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper. Pathological changes in the skin were investigated after intramuscular injections of ...
Local and systemic pathophysiological alterations induced by a serine proteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops jararacussu
(2007-06-01)
The local and systemic pathophysiological alterations induced by BjussuSP-I, a thrombin-like serine proteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops jararacussu, were assessed in mice. BjussuSP-I induced a mild edema but ...
Inflammatory effects of BaP1 a metalloproteinase isolated from Bothrops asper snake venom: leukocyte recruitment and release of cytokines
(2006-04)
The inflammatory events induced by BaP1, a 22.7 kDa metalloproteinase isolated from Bothrops asper snake venom, were studied. BaP1 i.p. injection in mice induced a marked inflammatory cell infiltrate into peritoneal cavity ...
Comparison of venom composition and biological activities of the subspecies Crotalus lepidus lepidus, Crotalus lepidus klauberi and Crotalus lepidus morulus from Mexico
(2013-08-01)
The rock rattlesnakes Crotalus lepidus comprise a group (lepidus, klauberi, morulus and
maculosus) of poorly known mountain cold-tolerant snakes in Mexico. In particular, Crotalus
lepidus morulus is a snake endemic of ...
Neutralization of myonecrosis, hemorrhage, and edema induced by Bothrops asper snake venom by homologous and heterologous pre-existing antibodies in mice
(1996)
The ability of pre-existing antibodies to neutralize locally-acting toxins of Bothrops
asper snake venom was investigated. Hemorrhage, myonecrosis, and edema
were markedly reduced in actively immunized mice, although ...
Immunological studies on BaH1 and BaPI, two hemorrhagic metalloproteinases from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper
(1995-08)
No immunological cross-reactivity was observed between BaH1 and BaP1, two hemorrhagic metalloproteinases isolated from B. asper venom, by gel immunodiffusion, Western blotting and neutralization studies. Cross-reactivity ...
A neutralizing recombinant single chain antibody, scFv, against BaP1, A P-I hemorrhagic metalloproteinase from Bothrops asper snake venom
(2014-09-01)
BaP1 is a P-I class snake venom metalloproteinase (SVMP) relevant in the local tissue damage associated with envenomings by Bothrops asper, a medically important snake species in Central America and parts of South and North ...
