Venenos de serpientes de la familia Viperidae en América: Bioquímica y fisiopatología.
(2011)
Se muestra una perspectiva general de las características bioquímicas de los principales tipos de toxinas
presentes en los venenos de vipéridos americanos y la fisiopatología de estos envenenamientos. En la preparación ...
Role of collagens and perlecan in microvascular stability: exploring the mechanism of capillary vessel damage by snake venom metalloproteinases
(2011-12-08)
Hemorrhage is a clinically important manifestation of viperid snakebite envenomings, and is induced by snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs). Hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic SVMPs hydrolyze some basement membrane (BM) and ...
Effect of adjuvants on the antibody response of mice to Bothrops asper (Terciopelo) snake venom
(1996)
The adjuvant properties of several immunostimulant molecules on the murine antibody response to Bothrops asper snake venom were evaluated. Mice receiving venom together with either sodium alginate, calcium alginate, aluminum ...
Purification and characterization of BaH4, a hemorrhagic metalloproteinase from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper
(2000-01)
A hemorrhagic metalloproteinase, named BaH4, was isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose and gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200. BaH4 is a 69 kDa ...
Isolation and characterization of four medium-size disintegrins from the venoms of Central American viperid snakes of the genera Atropoides, Bothrops, Cerrophidion and Crotalus
(2014-12)
Four disintegrins were isolated from the venoms of the Central American viperid snakes Atropoides mexicanus (atropoimin), Bothrops asper (bothrasperin), Cerrophidion sasai (sasaimin), and Crotalus simus (simusmin). ...
Effect of the metalloproteinase inhibitor batimastat in the systemic toxicity induced by Bothrops asper snake venom: understanding the role of metalloproteinases in envenomation
(2014-03-15)
The peptidomimetic hydroxamate metalloproteinase inhibitor batimastat (BB-94) was assessed for its ability to neutralize the systemic effects (lethality, hemorrhage and coagulopathy) induced by the venom of Bothrops asper, ...
Anti-human erythrocyte antibodies in horse-derived antivenoms used in the treatment of snakebite envenomations
(2007-03)
This work examined the presence of antibodies reacting with human erythrocytes in horse-derived antivenoms used in the treatment of snakebite envenomations, and assessed the efficacy of various fractionation protocols in ...
Biochemical and biological characterization of two serine proteinases from Colombian Crotalus durissus cumanensis snake venom
(2013-03-01)
Two clotting serine proteinases, named Cdc SI and Cdc SII, were isolated and characterized for the first time from Colombian Crotalus durissus cumanensis snake venom. The enzymes were purified using two chromatographic ...
Blood flow is required for rapid endothelial cell damage induced by a snake venom hemorrhagic metalloproteinase
(2006-01)
The effects of blood flow interruption on the ultrastructural alterations induced by a snake venom hemorrhagic metalloproteinase on skeletal muscle capillary endothelial cells were studied. Saline solution or the ...
Proteomic analysis of Bothrops pirajai snake venom and characterization of BpirMP, a new P-I metalloproteinase
(2013-03-27)
Bothrops pirajai snake venom was analyzed by a proteomic strategy. Proteins were separated by RP-HPLC, followed by SDS-PAGE, in-gel tryptic digestion, identification by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry, and assignment to ...
