Toxins profiles, toxicological properties, and histological alteration potentiality of Trimeresurus erythrurus venom: In vitro and in vivo experiments

Objectives: Trimeresurus erythrurus (Red-tailed bamboo pit viper) contributes significantly to snakebite envenoming cases in Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, and Nepal. However, the absence of specific antivenom and challenging socio-economic conditions in these regions necessitate the development of sym...

description Objectives: Trimeresurus erythrurus (Red-tailed bamboo pit viper) contributes significantly to snakebite envenoming cases in Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, and Nepal. However, the absence of specific antivenom and challenging socio-economic conditions in these regions necessitate the development of symptom-based medication to mitigate the severity of T. erythrurus envenoming. Therefore, documenting the effects of T. erythrurus venom on mammalian organs can establish a foundation for further research on symptom-based medication. Methods: We profiled T. erythrurus venom toxins using SDS-PAGE. Additionally, we assessed the venom's toxicological properties through lethality, hemorrhagic, edematogenic, hemolytic, and phospholytic assays. Furthermore, we examined the histological alterations induced by crude venom on various organs of mice. Results: SDS-PAGE profiling confirmed the presence of Snake Venom Metalloproteases (SVMPs), Snake Venom Serine Proteases (SVSPs), Phospholipase A2 (PLA2), L-amino Acid Oxidases (LAAOs), Myotoxins, and Disintegrins as toxic components in T. erythrurus venom. The venom exhibited a Median Lethal Dose (LD50) of 1.131 mg/kg, Minimum Hemorrhagic Dose (MHD) of 0.21 mg/kg, Minimum Edematogenic Dose (MED) of 0.17 mg/kg, and Median Hemolytic Dose (HD50) of 2.527 mg/L. Moreover, the venom induced significant pathological changes in mammalian skin, skeletal muscle, lung, heart, kidney, and intestine. Conclusions: This study elucidates the major toxins, critical toxicological indices, and histopathological effects of T. erythrurus venom on mammalian organs. These findings provide valuable insights on the development of effective treatment strategies for pathophysiological complications that could manifest post T. erythrurus envenoming.
