“…The PLA 2 superfamily has broadly been classified into four major groups; the snake venom PLA 2 s, with molecular weight ranging from 10 to 15 kDa, are classified under Groups I and II of the secretory PLA 2 (sPLA 2 ) [69]. PLA 2 enzymes display diverse pharmacological effects like neurotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, myotoxicity, necrosis, anticoagulant, hypotensive, hemolysis, hemorrhage, edema and membrane damage by several different mechanisms and PLA 2 s are therefore considered important toxic enzymes of snake venoms [28][29][30]70,71].…”
