Skeletal muscle necrosis and regeneration after injection of Thalassophryne nattereri (niquim) fish venom in mice
(2001-02)
Stings by Thalassophryne nattereri are responsible for envenomation of fishermen in north-eastern Brazil. Its venom induces prominent local tissue damage, characterized by pain, oedema and necrosis. The pathogenesis of ...

(2008-10)
The venom proteomes of the snakes Bothrops caribbaeus and Bothrops lanceolatus, endemic to the
Lesser Antillean islands of Saint Lucia and Martinique, respectively, were characterized by reversephase
HPLC fractionation, ...

A new myotoxic phospholipase A2was isolated from the venom of the arboreal snakeBothriechis schlegelii(formerlyBothrops schlegelii) from Costa Rica, by ion-exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex.B. schlegeliimyotoxin I is ...
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 ...
Tissue pathology induced by snake venoms: How to understand a complex pattern of alterations from a systems biology perspective?
(2010-01)
The study of snake venom-induced local tissue pathology has been predominantly based on experimental designs and concepts that view tissue alterations from a dichotomous, homogeneous and reductionist perspective. Experimental ...
