Natural products such as antimicrobial peptides may present an alternative to face antibiotic-resistant bacteria and virus. Melittin, a fraction of Apis mellifera bee venom, is an antimicrobial peptide with a broad spectrum of action, with antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral activity. This project aims to: evaluate antibacterial activity of melittin against Acinetobacter baumannii, En…

The impact of local manifestations and tissue loss/amputations of snake envenomated patients on public health systems is continually increasing. In part, this problem is due to the lack of effective treatment for tissue degradation, as well as gaps regarding the mechanisms of action involved in such an effect. In Brazil, most human envenomations are caused by snakes of the Viperidae famil…
