Bothrops asper metalloproteinase BaP1 is inhibited by alpha(2)-macroglobulin and mouse serum and does not induce systemic hemorrhage or coagulopathy
(2004-02)
The ability of the P-I metalloproteinase BaP1, isolated from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper, to induce systemic bleeding, thrombocytopenia and defibrinogenation was assessed in an experimental mouse model. Intravenous ...
Characterization of aspercetin, a platelet aggregating component from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper which induces thrombocytopenia and potentiates metalloproteinase-induced hemorrhage
(2001-04)
Thrombocytopenia occurs in a number of patients bitten by Bothrops asper, a species responsible for the majority of snakebites in Central America and southern Mexico. In this work we describe the isolation of a new ...
Pulmonary hemorrhage induced by jararhagin, a metalloproteinase from Bothrops jararaca snake venom
(2003-11-15)
Jararhagin is the most important hemorrhagic component in the venom of the snake Bothrops jararaca, a species of medical importance in South America. It is a P-III zinc-dependent metalloproteinase comprising catalytic, ...
Role of the snake venom toxin jararhagin in proinflammatory pathogenesis: In vitro and in vivo gene expression analysis of the effects of the toxin
(2005-09)
To assess the indirect effects of snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMP) on host tissue local necrosis, we investigated the effect of the SVMP jararhagin on the gene expression profiles of human fibroblasts in vitro and ...
