Toxins that block voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels provide a possible template for improved homology models of the Kv pore. In assessing the interactions of Kv channels and their toxins it is important to determine the dynamic flexibility of the toxins.
Adolfo Borges et al.
Parasitology research, 99(2), 167-173 (2006-03-16)
Leishmania parasites are sensitive to peptides with antimicrobial and ion-channel inhibitory activity. Because scorpion venoms are rich sources of such peptides, the leishmanicidal effect of Tityus discrepans venom was investigated. A negative correlation between cell growth and venom concentration was

In this work we submitted adult male Wistar rats to intracerebroventricular (icv) and iv microinjections of the fraction tityostoxin (TsTX) from the Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom, to address whether the CNS could account for the systemic alterations previously reported: cardiac

Tityus serrulatus venom (Tsv) was intraperitoneally (ip) injected at doses of 75, 150 and 300mug/kg and IL-1beta (2.0 microg/kg) was given intravenously (iv) to male Wistar rats. Rectal temperature was measured by radiotelemetry. Vagotomy was performed according to Bluthe et

Scorpion toxins act on ionic channels changing the release of neurotransmitters. In the present study, we investigated the glutamatergic release evoked by intrahippocampal injection of TsTX toxin isolated from Tityus serrulatus scorpion venom in male Wistar rats and the blockade
