Among the medically most important snakes in the world, the species belonging to the genus Daboia have been attributed to the highest number of human envenomings, deaths and disabilities. Given their significant clinical relevance, the venoms of Russell's vipers (D. russelii and D. siamensis) have been the primary focus of research. In contrast, the composition, activity, ecology and evolution of venom of its congener, the Palestine viper (D. palaestinae), have remain ...[more]

Fangs in the ghats: preclinical insights into the medical importance of endemic pit vipers from the Western Ghats

Project description:The socioeconomic burden of snakebite in India is largely attributed to the ‘big four’ snakes, completely neglecting the considerable impact of envenoming by many other snake species. Bites from the so-called ‘neglected many’ are often treated with a polyvalent antivenom that is manufactured against the ‘big four’ snakes - a strategy that has been widely documented to fail. Yet, specific antivenoms are not commercially manufactured against these snakes. While the medical importance of various species of cobras, saw-scaled vipers, and kraits is very well-known, the clinical impact of pit vipers from the rainforests of the Western Ghats, northeastern India, and Andaman and Nicobar islands has remained elusive. Amongst the 90+ species of snakes found in the Western Ghats, the hump-nosed (Hypnale hypnale), Malabar (Craspedocephalus malabaricus) and bamboo (Craspedocephalus gramineus) pit vipers can potentially inflict clinically severe envenoming in humans. To evaluate the severity of toxicity inflicted by these snakes, we characterised their venom composition, biochemical and pharmacological activities, and toxicity- and morbidity-inducing potentials. Our findings highlight the therapeutic inadequacies of the generic Indian and Hypnale-specific Sri Lankan polyvalent antivenoms in neutralising morbidity and mortality resulting from pit viper envenomings and underscore the need for a regional antivenom therapy in India.

The preclinical evaluation of a second-generation antivenom for treating snake envenoming in India

Project description:In this study, by employing chromatographic purification of the bulk, we have significantly enhanced the preclinical performance of the conventional Indian antivenom product. The effectiveness of the test batches of this ‘second-generation’ antivenom was evaluated using a variety of in vitro and in vivo preclinical assays, including venom recognition and toxicity and pathology neutralisation. The outcomes of these experiments demonstrated the significantly superior performance of the purified product over all other major commercial Indian antivenoms.

A wolf in another wolf’s clothing: Post-genomic regulation dictates venom profiles of medically-important cryptic kraits in India

Project description:This study investigates the widespread cryptic Bungarus caeruleus (Comman krait) in India and clinical repercussions of their bits by implementing multidisciplinary approach involving proteomics, transcripomics, and assessment of toxicity and efficacy of currently marketed anivenoms. The study also aims at understanding the evolutionary relationships between these phenotypically simillar kraits.

From birth to bite: the evolutionary ecology of India's medically most important snake venoms

Project description:Venoms of N. naja and D. russelii individuals of various developmental stages, including neonates (<30 days), juveniles (between 1 to 12 months), and mature individuals (>36 months), were sampled with permission from the state forest department of Karnataka. 226 individuals and 9 clutches were examined, including periodic venom collection (every three months) from the same N. naja and D. russelii juvenile individuals to track ontogenetic changes across time. Freshly collected venoms were flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen, lyophilised and stored at -80° C. Venoms were fractionated using RP-HPLC and SDS-PAGE and subjected to tandem mass spectrometry for toxin identification. The relative abundance of each toxin family were estimated and compared across different developmental stages.

Elusive elapid: Biogeographic venom variation in Indian kraits and its repercussion on snakebite therapy

Project description:Snakebite is a major public health concern in many parts of the world, including India, where over 58,000 deaths occur annually due to this highly neglected tropical disease. The common krait (Bungarus caeruleus), one of the ‘big four’ Indian snakes, is responsible for the second-highest number of snakebite-related deaths in the country. The venom protein composition of common krait venoms from different locations were investigated. Venoms were pre-fractionated using RP-HPLC and SDS-PAGE, and subjected to mass spectromentry analysis. The relative abundance of each toxin family was estimated and compared across different locations.

Proteomic Investigations of Two Pakistani Naja Snake Venoms Species Unravel the Venom Complexity, Posttranslational Modifications and Presence of Extracellular Vesicles

Project description:Latest advancement of omics technologies allows in-depth characterization of venom compositions. In the present work we present a proteomic study of two snake venoms of the genus Naja i.e. Naja naja (black cobra) and Naja oxiana (brown cobra), of Pakistani origin. The present study has shown that these snake venoms consist of a highly diversified proteome. Furthermore, the data also revealed variation among closely related species. High throughput mass spectrometric analysis of the venom proteome allowed to identify for the N. naja venom 34 protein families and for the N. oxiana 24 protein families. The comparative evaluation of the two venoms showed that N. naja consists of a more complex venom proteome than N. oxiana venom.

Venomics of the Central-European Myrmicine Ants Myrmica rubra and Myrmica ruginodis

Project description:Animal venoms are a rich source of novel biomolecules with tremendous potential in medicine and agriculture. Ants represent one of the most species-rich lineages of venomous animals. However, only a fraction of their biodiversity has been studied so far. Here, we investigated the venom compositions from Myrmica rubra and Myrmica ruginodis, two members of the Myrmicinae subfamily of ants. We applied a proteo-transcriptomics based venomics workflow. Our analysis revealed that venoms of both species are composed of several protein classes, such as venom serine protease, cysteine-rich secretory proteins, antigen 5 and pathogenesis-related 1 proteins (CAP), Kunitz-type serine protease inhibitors or venom acid phosphatase. Several protein classes identified are known venom allergens, and for the first time we detected phospholipase A1 in the venom of M. ruginodis. We also identified two novel toxins of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family in its venom proteome and an array of additional EGF-like toxins in venom gland transcriptomes of both species. They display similarity to known toxins from the related myrmecine Manica rubida and the Australian red bulldog ant Myrmecia gullosa of the Myrmeciinae subfamily and may serve as nociceptive weapons in defensive scenarios. Our work suggests that the venoms of M. rubra and M. ruginodis contain many high molecular proteins and enzymes with putatively cell damaging functions. Nevertheless, the presence of EGF-like toxins underpins that myrmicine ants also recruited smaller peptide components into their venom arsenal. Although little is known about the bioactivity and function of these EGF-like toxins, their presence in Myrmecinae and Myrmeciinae suggests that they play an important role for the venom systems of Formicoidea. Our work adds to the emerging picture of ant venoms as a source for novel biomolecules. This underlines the importance to incorporate such taxa in future venom bioprospecting programs.
