Recent proteomic analyses of snake venoms show that metalloproteinases represent major
components in most of the Crotalid and Viperid venoms. In this chapter we discuss the …

The historical development of discoveries and conceptual frames for understanding the
hemorrhagic activity induced by viperid snake venoms and by hemorrhagic …

The Handbook of Venoms and Toxins of Reptiles offers" one-stop shop**" to all biologists,
biochemists, toxicologists, physicians, clinicians, and epidemiologists, and informed …

Hemorrhage is one of the most significant effects in envenomings induced by viperid
snakebites. Damage to the microvasculature, induced by snake venom metalloproteinases …

Toxins from Bothrops venoms targeting hemostasis are responsible for a broad range of
clinical and biological syndromes including local and systemic bleeding, incoagulability …

We describe two geographically differentiated venom phenotypes across the wide
distribution range of Bothrops atrox, from the Colombian Magdalena Medio Valley through …

Snake venom toxins are responsible for causing severe pathology and toxicity following
envenomation including necrosis, apoptosis, neurotoxicity, myotoxicity, cardiotoxicity …

Envenomations by Bothrops asper are often associated with complex and severe local
pathological manifestations, including edema, blistering, dermonecrosis, myonecrosis and …

Snakes of the Philodryadini tribe are included in the Dipsadidae family, which is a diverse
group of rear-fanged snakes widespread in different ecological conditions, including …

The venom proteomes of Bothrops atrox from Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, and Perú were
characterized using venomic and antivenomic strategies. Our results evidence the existence …
