Serotherapy against snakebite is often unavailable in some regions over Brazil, where people make use of plants from folk medicine to deal with ophidic accidents. About 10% Combretum species have ethnopharmacological use, including treatment snakebites.We evaluated the ability extract leprosum and its component arjunolic acid reduce vivo vitro effects Bothrops jararacussu jararaca venoms. The protocols investigated include phospholipase, proteolytic, collagenase, hyaluronidase, procoagulant,...
Snake envenoming is an important public health problem around the world, particularly in tropics. Beyond deaths, morbidity induced by snake venoms, such as myotoxicity, of pivotal consequence to population. Bothrops jararacussu main venomous southeast region Brazil, and presents strong myotoxic effect. The only available therapy, antibothropic antivenom, poorly affects venom-induced myotoxicity. aim this study assess ability fucosylated chondroitin sulfate (fucCS), a glycosaminoglycan with...
Background It is known that local tissue injuries incurred by snakebites are quickly instilled causing extensive, irreversible, destruction may include loss of limb function or even amputation. Such not completely neutralized the available antivenins, which in general focused on halting systemic effects. Therefore it prudent to investigate potential antiophidic effects natural and synthetic compounds, perhaps combining them with serum therapy, potentially attenuate eliminate adverse snake...
Massive, Africanized honeybee attacks have increased in Brazil over the years. Humans and animals present local systemic effects after envenomation, there is no specific treatment for this potentially lethal event. This study evaluated ability of a new Apilic antivenom, which composed F(ab')2 fraction immunoglobulins heterologous hyperimmune equine serum, to neutralize A. mellifera venom melittin, vitro vivo, mice. Animal experiments were performed according with ethics committee license...
