Myotoxin-neutralizing peptides
PEPTIDES NEUTRALISANT LES MYOTOXINES
(2018-03-27)
The present invention relates to polypeptides having myotoxin-neutralizing properties and their use for treatment of envenomation. The present invention further relates to methods for neutralizing a venom using the polypeptide ...
In vivo neutralization of Myotoxin II, a phospholipase A2 homolog from Bothrops asper venom, using peptides discovered via phage display technology
(2022)
Many snake venom toxins cause local tissue damage in prey and victims, which constitutes an important pathology that is challenging to treat with existing antivenoms. One of the notorious toxins that causes such effects ...
Danger in the reef: Proteome, toxicity, and neutralization of the venom of the olive sea snake, Aipysurus laevis
(2015-12-01)
Four specimens of the olive sea snake, Aipysurus laevis, were collected off the coast of Western Australia, and the venom proteome was characterized and quantitatively estimated by RP-HPLC, SDS-PAGE, and MALDI-TOF-TOF ...
In vivo neutralization of the dendrotoxin-mediated neurotoxicity of black mamba venom by oligoclonal human IgG monoclonal antibodies
(2018)
The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is one of the most feared snake species of the
African savanna. It has a potent, fast-acting neurotoxic venom comprised of dendrotoxins and
α-neurotoxins associated with high ...
Unveiling the nature of black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) venom through venomics and antivenom immunoprofiling: identification of key toxin targets for antivenom development.
(2015-04-24)
The venom proteome of the black mamba, Dendroaspis polylepis, from Eastern Africa, was, for the first time, characterized. Forty- different proteins and one nucleoside were identified or assigned to protein families. The ...
Pros and cons of different therapeutic antibody formats for recombinant antivenom development
(2018-05)
Antibody technologies are being increasingly applied in the field of toxinology. Fuelled by the many
advances in immunology, synthetic biology, and antibody research, different approaches and antibody
formats are being ...
Toxicovenomics and antivenom profiling of the Eastern green mamba snake (Dendroaspis angusticeps).
(2016-03-16)
A toxicovenomic study was performed on the venom of the green mamba, Dendroaspis angusticeps. Forty-two different proteins were identified in the venom of D. angusticeps, in addition to the nucleoside adenosine. The most ...
High-throughput immuno-profiling of mamba (Dendroaspis) venom toxin epitopes using high-density peptide microarrays
(2016-11-08)
Snakebite envenoming is a serious condition requiring medical attention and administration of
antivenom. Current antivenoms are antibody preparations obtained from the plasma of animals
immunised with whole venom(s) and ...
