In vitro Scolicidal effects of Androctonus crassicauda (Olivier, 1807) venom against the protoscolices of Echinococcus granulosus

Antihelimentic effect of Androctonus crassicauda scorpion venom against Trichuris arvicolae isolated from Psammomys obesus in Egypt

“…The scorpion venom’s anthelmintic properties effectively extend to cestodes, its effect was studied by ( Al-Malki and Abdelsater, 2020 ) , reporting that ACCV is as powerful as it could kill all the protoscolices of hydatid cysts during 240 min, while ( Al-Malki et al, 2022 ) demonstrated that the protoscolices brood at 100 µg/mL, expressed caspase-3 that was noticeably elevated. than those brood with 50 µg/mL of ACCV.…”

“…The scorpions were gathered, and venoms were obtained and diluted according to the instructions published previously ( Al-Malki and Abdelsater, 2020 , Al-Malki et al, 2022 ).…”

“…The extracted antimicrobial peptides have a broad-spectrum restrained impact versus bacteria ( Du et al, 2014 ). The ACCV was first demonstrated emperically contra Echinococcus granulosus protoscolices by some studies ( Al-Malki and Abdelsater, 2020 , Al-Malki et al, 2022 ) reporting that it has powerful anthelminthic effects. The aim of our study is to molecularly determine Trichuris spp.…”

“…In addition to the scolicidal substances known and used in practice [21], several recent studies have reported, as an alternative option, the use of scolicidal agents of plant origin [23,24], nanoparticles of silver, iron, copper, selenium, etc. [25,26], the venom peptides of some scorpion species [27,28], although the results obtained are still in the stage of desideratum.…”
