Currently, cancer is becoming increasingly common, being one of the main causes of death, especially in developing countries, representing today a real crisis for health systems worldwide. Conventionally administered treatment against tumor cells is not fully efficient, producing a range of side effects, decreasing the patient's quality of life, in addition to giving rise to multidrug res…
Animal venoms are complex mixtures of biologically active compounds, among which, still little explored, are low molecular mass compounds, such as peptides, organic components and lipids. These molecules act in isolation or synergistically, being able to bind to different cellular receptors and/or interfere with metabolic pathways. Infectious diseases are among the main causes of death in…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world, but despite being highlighted in recent research, its cause remains unknown, there is no cure and the available treatments only aim to control the symptoms. Few studies focus on the role of peptides in PD, which have been shown to play a biological role in other neurodegenerative diseases. A previou…
Cancer, one of the main causes of death in the world, is a genetic disease that is difficult to treat. Because of this, several alternatives for the cure of this disease have already been developed, but most of them have severe side effects, which affect the quality of life of patients affected by the disease; in addition, tumor cells tend to acquire resistance to the administered drugs, …
Animal venoms and venoms are a rich source of pharmacologically active substances. These molecules act alone or in synergism, being able to bind to different cell receptors and/or interfere in metabolic pathways. The exploration of the mechanisms of action of toxins has shown to be relevant, not only for providing the molecular basis involved in the mechanism of toxicity of these molecule…
The search for new compounds of natural origin is a constant in the scientific community, with venoms being rich sources of studies. Within this context, through a multidisciplinary proposal, this project aims at the isolation and structural and functional characterization of insecticidal peptides, isolated from snake venoms. To achieve these objectives, the isolation of biomolecules will…

Infectious diseases pose a significant challenge to global public health, accounting for hundreds of thousands of deaths annually. The improper use of antimicrobial agents has contributed to the rise of microbial resistance, leading to a reduction in the effectiveness of conventional treatments. In this context, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), such as Melittin - composed of 26 amino acid r…
Zebrafish have been a highly used alternative animal model to better understand manydifferent conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases. The second most commonneurodegenerative disease worldwide is Parkinson's disease (PD), a disease where dopamineneurons malfunction or die and lead to many motor symptoms such as tremors, balance issuesand problems to speak and swallow, among many …
