“…Some toxins stimulate the entry of sodium through voltage-dependent sodium channels (Na v ), while others obstruct the potassium channel pores and impede their function. In either case, the result of such action is membrane depolarization, followed by potential of action and massive neurotransmitter release [2,3,4,5,6]. …”

“…Por exemplo, a peçonha do escorpião (Tityus serrulatus) possui atividade imunomodulatória sobre macrófagos murinos, interferindo na produção e liberação de determinadas citocinas e óxido nítrico (PETRICEVICH et al, 2007). O mesmo efeito também foi demonstrado em macrófagos expostos aos venenos de outros animais: vespas (PONVERT et al, 2001), abelhas (JANG et al, 2005) e aranhas (ZANCHET et al, 2004).…”

“…These scorpion venom polypeptides (SVPs) have been demonstrated to have a diverse array of biological activities with high specificities to their targeted sites, including anti-tumor, anti-epileptic, analgesic and ion channel blocking properties (5)(6)(7)(8)(9). Our group has focused on the SVP and SVPII from the Buthus martensii scorpion venom (10)(11)(12).…”
