The knowledge regarding toxins diversity, composition, structure, molecular and pharmacological interactions involved in the process of envenomation provide lessons for drug design based on these natural molecular scaffolds and pharmacophores of toxins. This study unravels new toxins sequenced by ma...

We describe a method to identify neuropeptides in specific cell-types by the conditional disruption of the gene for carboxypeptidase E (Cpe), an essential neuropeptide-processing enzyme. The loss of Cpe led to the accumulation of neuropeptides containing C-terminal basic residues which are used as t...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, a thermally dimorphic fungus, is the causative agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, a systemic mycosis that is widespread in Latin America. P. brasiliensis infection occurs when conidia or mycelial fragments are inhaled by the host, which causes these cells to transition t...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis, an important systemic mycosis in Latin America. Few virulence factors have been identified for this pathogen. In this study, we quantitatively evaluated the protein composition of P. brasiliensis in the yeast phase using minimal a...

Background: Bothrops atrox is known to be the pitviper responsible for most snakebites and human fatalities in the Amazon region. It can be found in a wide geographical area including the northern South America, the east of Andes and the Amazon basin. Possibly due to its wide distribution range and ...

Snake venoms are complex protein mixtures with different biological activities that can act in both their preys and human victims. Many of these proteins play a role in prey capture and in the digestive process of these animals. It is known that some snakes are resistant to the toxicity of their own...

Snake venoms are known to be major sources of peptides with different pharmacological properties. In this study, we comprehensively explored the venom peptidomes of three specimens of Lachesis muta, the largest venomous snake in South America, using mass spectrometry techniques. The analysis reveale...

The Araneae order is considered one of the most successful group among venomous animals in the world. An important factor for this success is the production of venoms, a refined biological fluid rich in proteins, short peptides and cysteine-rich peptides (CRPs). These toxins may present pharmacologi...

Abstract: ArtinM, a D-mannose-binding lectin from Artocarpus heterophyllus induces the activation of a Mast cell, neutrophils, macrophages, and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, via carbohydrate recognition. we previously reported, that ArtinM is able to induce IL-17 and IL-12p40 production in murine B cells. ...
