Unresolved issues in the understanding of the pathogenesis of local tissue damage induced by snake venoms
(2018-06)
Snakebite envenoming by viperid species, and by some elapids, is characterized by a complex pattern of
tissue damage at the anatomical site of venom injection. In severe cases, tissue destruction may be so
extensive as ...
Metaloproteinasas dependientes de Zinc: Protagonistas centrales en la Fisiopatología de Envenenamientos por Serpientes de la familia Viperidae
(2016)
Se presenta y discute el papel que juegan las metaloproteinasas de los venenos de serpientes (SVMPs) de la familia Viperidae en la fisiopatología de los envenenamientos inducidos por mordeduras de estos reptiles. Se hace ...
Novel catalytically-inactive PII metalloproteinases from a viperid snake venom with substitutions in the canonical zinc-binding motif
(2016-10-12)
Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) play key biological roles in prey immobilization
and digestion. The majority of these activities depend on the hydrolysis of relevant protein substrates
in the tissues. Hereby, we ...
