Centipedes are venomous arthropods responsible for a significant number of non-lethal
human envenomations. Despite this, information about the composition and function of their …

The limited number of centipede venom characterizations have revealed a rich diversity of
toxins, and recent work has suggested centipede toxins may be more rapidly diversifying …

Centipede venoms have emerged as a rich source of novel bioactive compounds. However,
most centipede species are commonly considered too small for venom extraction and …

Centipedes have venom glands in their first pair of limbs, and their venoms contain a large
number of components with different biochemical and pharmacological properties. However …

Venom generally comprises a complex mixture of compounds representing a non-trivial
metabolic expense. Accordingly, natural selection should fine-tune the amount of venom …

Centipedes are among the oldest extant venomous predators on the planet. Armed with a
pair of modified, venom-bearing limbs, they are an important group of predatory arthropods …

Centipedes have a venom gland connected to a pair of forceps, which are used to arrest
preys. Human victims bitten by centipedes usually manifest burning pain, paresthesia and …

Centipede venoms are complex mixtures of biochemically and pharmacologically active
components such as peptides and proteins. Very few are known about their …

Venomous animals have evolved with sophisticated bio-chemical strategies to arrest prey
and defend themselves from natural predators. In recent years, peptide toxins from …

We report the comparative proteomic and antivenomic characterization of the venoms of
subspecies cascavella and collilineatus of the Brazilian tropical rattlesnake Crotalus …
