“…Lionfish envenomation can be seen in divers, fisherman and swimmers in the seas of world-wide (Thomas and Tharakaram, 2016;Resiere et al, 2016;Sümen and Öztürk 2020). In the French West, Indies victims included divers (47%), fishermen (32%), swimmers (21%), and even cooks (3%) (Resiere et al, 2016).…”

“…In the French West, Indies victims included divers (47%), fishermen (32%), swimmers (21%), and even cooks (3%) (Resiere et al, 2016). The case was reported by a swimmer in Egypt (Thomas and Tharakaram, 2016). The case occurred while cleaning a freshly caught lionfish in Belize (Norton and Norton 2021).…”

“…The venoming cases occurred with fishermen and swimmers in Turkey. When the cases in the world were examined, pain, edema, and swelling were usually symptoms seen firstly after a lionfish sting (Haddad et al, 2015;Aldred et al, 1996, Tam et al, 2007Badillo et al, 2012;Lucerna et al, 2017;Schult et al, 2017, Thomas andTharakaram, 2016;Resiere et al, 2016;Norton and Norton 2021). In the cases in Turkey, the first symptoms were pain and swelling.…”

“…Similarly, it was not in Turkey. The first application was immersion in hot water in the World (Haddad et al, 2015;Aldred et al, 1996, Tam et al, 2007Schaper et al, 2009;Badillo et al, 2012;Lucerna et al, 2017;Schult et al, 2017, Thomas andTharakaram, 2016;Resiere et al, 2016;Norton and Norton 2021). In Turkey, the first application was immersion in hot water in three of the seven lionfish venoming cases.…”

“…Up to date, most of the reported cases of lionfish venoming are aquarium related (Haddad et al, 2015;Aldred et al, 1996, Tam et al, 2007Schaper et al, 2009;Badillo et al, 2012;Lucerna et al, 2017;Schult et al, 2017). However, the number of cases is remarkable in several studies reported from marine sources (Thomas and Tharakaram, 2016;Resiere et al, 2016;Ayaz et al, 2020). This study, it was aimed to reveal lionfish awareness studies and lionfish venoming cases in Turkey.…”

The study was carried out in the Mediterranean region of Turkey between the years 2018-2021. In this study, it was aimed to reveal the awareness studies to combat lionfish and lionfish venoming cases in Turkey. The awareness studies were determined by institutional studies. Personal interviews, first aid agency notifications and literature were investigated to find lionfish venoming cases. The four awareness studies were found. The seven lionfish venoming cases were detected. Pain, swelling, and redness were often the first symptoms. The three of the seven cases were immersed in hot water. No fatality was. The awareness studies with the derbies or tournaments have to continue in Turkey. Government-supported removal efforts must be made to reduce the population and stocks of invasive lionfish.

Background:: For the past 70 years, the focus of research is towards the search for poisons and toxins found in venomous and poisonous organisms which is purely directed towards the pharmacological properties of the toxins. In the research of finding novel compounds in pharmaceutical research, the identified source was the piscine venom. Objective:: Scorpanidae family was considered the most venomous of all. The toxins isolated from stonefish and lionfish are responsible for the effects caused in cardiovascular and neuromuscular systems and also in causing cytolytic activities. The main objective of the review is to study the mechanism of the stone fish venom and portray its benefits in the field of drug discovery. Methods:: A study on the mechanism of stone fish venom was carried out by inducing cardiovascular endothelium. The release of neurotransmitter signals thus leads to the depolarisation of cell membrane by the formation of pores in the cell membrane in neuromuscular system of rabbits, porcine artery, mice and rats. Lionfish venom in cross reactivity with the results evolved from a stonefish venom activity. The presence of enzymatic hyaluronidase in the primary structures of lionfish has evolved from stonefish and their anticancer potential has also been demonstrated for the benefits of drug discovery as they possess biological and chemical activity. Conclusion:: This review depicts an overview on the pharmacological activities of lionfish venom in comparison with the stonefish venom and their purpose on applications for future research in drug discovery.
