Preliminarily, a concentration-response curve of AgNPs was carried out to select the concentration to be used for neutralizing assays, which consists of neutralizing the venom-induced neuromuscular paralysis and edema by preincubating AgNPs with venom for 30 min.Results: The P. olfersii venom-induced edema (n=6) and a complete neuromuscular blockade (n=4) that includes the total and unrecovered block of ACh and KCl contractures. AgNPs produced a concentration-dependent decrease the venom-induced edema (n=6) from 223.3% to 134.4% and to 100.5% after 10 and 100 μL AgNPs-preincubation, respectively. The preincubation of venom with AgNPs (1 μL; n=6) was able to maintain 46.5 ± 10.9% of neuromuscular response under indirect stimuli, 39.2 ± 9.7% of extrinsic nicotinic receptors functioning in absence of electrical stimulus and 28.3 ± 8.1% of responsiveness to potassium on the sarcolemmal membrane. The CK release was not affected by any experimental protocol which was like control.Conclusion: AgNPs interact with constituents of P. olfersii venom responsible for the edema-forming activity and neuromuscular blockade, but not on the sarcolemma membrane-acting constituents. The protective effect of the studied AgNPs on avian preparation points out to molecular targets as intrinsic and extrinsic nicotinic receptors.Keywords: chick biventer cervicis, opisthoglyphous snakes, Philodryas olfersii, neuromuscular blockade, silver nanoparticles
