چکیده

Abstract Venom and poison peptides are powerful biological weapons have proven immense pharmacological potential because of their high binding affinity to a wide range molecular targets. Nonetheless, many these cannot directly be used as medicines due toxicity but derivatives very valuable explore can great treasure trove for the development novel drugs. This review presents detailed overview venom present in reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, gastropods, clitellatas, fish, insects, mammals. We address most recent findings that underline therapeutic against variety diseases from cancer vascular, autoimmune, inflammatory diseases. Graphical

Venomous and Poisonous Australian Animals of Veterinary Importance: A Rich Source of Novel Therapeutics

Envenomation and poisoning by terrestrial animals (both vertebrate and invertebrate) are a significant economic problem and health risk for domestic animals in Australia. Australian snakes are some of the most venomous animals in the world and bees, wasps, ants, paralysis ticks, and cane toads are also present as part of the venomous and poisonous fauna. The diagnosis and treatment of envenomat...

Protease Inhibitors from Marine Venomous Animals and Their Counterparts in Terrestrial Venomous Animals

The Kunitz-type protease inhibitors are the best-characterized family of serine protease inhibitors, probably due to their abundance in several organisms. These inhibitors consist of a chain of ~60 amino acid residues stabilized by three disulfide bridges, and was first observed in the bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI)-like protease inhibitors, which strongly inhibit trypsin and chymot...

Poisonous Plants and Effects on Animals

Livestock animals are at the mercy of toxic plants when these plants are present in feeds or hay. Alfalfa hay or forage, which is commonly offered to livestock animals, may pose a risk if contaminated with poisonous plants. Undesirable effects may result from ingestion of large amounts of alfalfa by livestock but may also be associated with the ingestion of small amounts of highly toxic plants ...
