Butantan Institute researchers succeeded in reducing the toxicity and potentiating the analgesic effect of crotoxin by encapsulating it in nanostructured silica; the results of tests in an animal model of neuropathic pain are promising
The DUBprofiler-Cell™ assay utilizes activity-based probes to capture active DUBs (i.e. DUBs with reactive catalytic site cysteine residues) within a cell-line or tissue
