Living organisms produce a wide variety of molecules characterized by specificity and selectivity to cellular and molecular targets which are important requirements for the development of new drugs. Several classes of drugs used in therapy as prototypes had natural molecules, especially originating from plants and microorganisms. The bioprospection of aquatic and terrestrial animal poiso…
Crotoxin (CTX), the major component of Crotalus durissus terrificus (South American rattlesnake) snake venom is a potent myotoxic neurotoxin that promotes both pre- and postsynaptic blockage of neuromuscular transmission and rhabdomyolysis. However, despite its toxicity, CTX has potential therapeutic value due to its immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-tumor and anti-…
