“…Venom from the viper Bothropoides jararaca has numerous well-known medicinal uses. Ciscotto et al (2009) described the antibacterial and anti-parasite activity of L-amino acid oxidase from this same source, while Morais et al (2009) reported anti-coagulant activity of the antithrombin present in this same venom. Liu et al (2008) demonstrated an anti-tumor effect in extracts of a lizard (Gecko japonicus) that is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, and lysozymes from the turtles Trionyx sinensis, Amyda cartilagenea and Chelonia mydas have shown high antibacterial activities in laboratory tests (Thammasirirak et al, 2006).…”

“…Our group has isolated antithrombin from Bothrops jararaca snake plasma by affinity chromatography using HiTrap Heparin HP column and its molecular weight, amino-terminal sequence, carbohydrate content, and isoelectric point; inhibition of bovine thrombin and immunological properties were studied and compared with previously described antithrombins [95]. Bothrops jararaca antithrombin is a single-chain glycoprotein with 18% total carbohydrate content.…”

“…Immunological cross-reactivity was observed among fish, frog, chicken, human, nonvenomous snake, and Bothrops jararaca antithrombins. Bothrops jararaca antithrombin showed inhibitory activity upon human and Bothrops jararaca coagulation and human thrombin amidolytic activity using synthetic substrate S-2238 [95]. …”

“…Inibidores de serinoproteases foram isolados dos venenos de serpentes da família Viperidae e Elapidae (FILIPPOVICH et al, 2002;GUO et al, 2001;WU;LO, 1983;LI;GREENAWAY, 2006;RITONJA;TURK;GUBENSEK, 1983;ZAIDI;JÖRNVALL, 1990a;SHAFQAT et al, 1990b;SCHWEITZ et al, 1994) os quais são em grande parte inibidores de serinoproteases pertencentes à família de inibidores de tripsina pancreática bovina tipo Kunitz (BPTI) (CHENG et al, 2012;LASKOWSKI, 1986;LASKOWSKI;KATO, 1980 O estudo de inibidores de proteases no plasma de serpentes pode levar ao desenvolvimento de novas alternativas terapêuticas para uma variedade de doenças (DE MORAIS et al, 2009;EARL et al, 2012;OLIVEIRA et al, 2008;OLIVEIRA et al, 2011;SANTOS-FILHO et al, 2011;SOARES et al, 2003;ZHANG et al, 2001;ZHANG et al, 2007). Portanto, faz-se necessário a identificação de moléculas do fígado para entender o processo de inibição de toxinas por proteínas do plasma de B. jararaca.…”
