Understanding snake venom pharmacokinetics is essential for developing risk assessment strategies and determining the optimal dose and timing of antivenom required to bind all venom in snakebite patients. This review aims to explore the current knowledge of snake venom pharmacokinetics in animals and humans. Literature searches were conducted using EMBASE (1974-present) and Medline (1946-presen...
Does High Dose of Viperidae Snake Antivenom Show Higher Efficacy over Low Dose in Severe Envenoming?
Snake bites poisoning is considered as one of the most common causes of death in Saudi Arabia annually. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of administration of high doses of anti-snake venom (ASV) versus low doses in adult patients with severe Viperidae envenoming. Cases were collected retrospectively from Dammam poisoning center, Saudi Arabia throughout the years: 2010 and 2012. Low dos...
Biochemical comparison of venoms from young Colombian Crotalus durissus cumanensis and their parents
Crotalus durissus cumanensis, a rattlesnake endemic to Colombia and Venezuela, is considered one of the most lethal snake species in Latin America. The aim of the present study was to compare the protein content and biological activity of the venom obtained from eight specimens of C. durissus cumanensis, namely two adults from different localities of Colombia and six offspring born in captivity...
The same selective forces that give rise to rapid inter- and intraspecific divergence in snake venoms can also favor differences in venoms across life-history stages. Ontogenetic changes in venom composition are well known and widespread in snakes but have not been investigated to the level of unambiguously identifying the specific loci involved. The eastern diamondback rattlesnake was previous...
Extracts from Dipteryx alata bark obtained with different solvents (hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate and methanol) were mixed in vitro with Bothrops jararacussu (Bjssu, 40 μg/mL) and Crotalus durissus terrificus (Cdt, 15 μg/mL) snake venoms, and applied to a mouse phrenic nerve-diaphragm preparation to evaluate the possible neutralization of venom effects. Cdt venom neurotoxic effect was ...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Snake-bites are the common cause of morbidity and mortality in tropical countries. In India, there are 216 species of snakes, of which only four are venomous snakes (cobra, krait, Russell's viper and saw scaled viper). This study was undertaken to find out the epidemiological profile of snake-bite incidences in the State of Andhra Pradesh, based on the data collected from...
Snakebite envenoming is a potentially life-threatening disease that typically results from the 2. injection of a mixture of different toxins (“venom”) following the bite of a venomous snake. Envenoming can also be caused by venom being sprayed into a person’s eyes by certain species of snakes that have the ability to spit venom as a defence measure. Not all snakebites result in envenoming: some...
Metastasis involves the migration of cancer cells from a primary tumor to invade and establish secondary tumors in distant organs, and it is the main cause for cancer-related deaths. Currently, the conventional cytostatic drugs target the proliferation of malignant cells, being ineffective in metastatic disease. This highlights the need to find new anti-metastatic drugs. Toxins isolated from sn...
The incidence of snake bite and the presence of venom antibody in previous snake bite victims was investigated in French Guiana. The incidence proved to be highest (600/100,000) in inhabitants of bush regions and lowest (45/100,000) in urban areas. Of 43 sera tested for specific venom antibody 22 (51%) were positive, and most of these individuals suffered severe or moderate poisoning. The main ...
introduction.?Snake venom is a secretion from the specialized glands in the mouth of the snake, analogous to the salivary glands of other animals. The venom itself is a complicated Protein and behaves like an enzyme. It is^ a neurotropic poison which is also endowed with digestive functions. Its strong proteolytic Properties are well known. A rat after being swallowed whole by a snake is comple...
