Spider Venoms
Spider venoms are a rich "library" of complex neurotoxins and peptides, offering unique molecules for pharmacological research and drug discovery. They are used in laboratory diagnostics for the detailed study of ion channels (especially calcium channels), receptors, pain syndromes, and the development of new analgesics. Are you looking for a specific calcium channel inhibitor or researching bio-insecticides? Find purified toxins for your neurobiological research here.
Considered the most complex chemical libraries of small peptides (spidercins). They are a key source for non-opioid analgesic development.
Applications
- Pain Research: Channel modulators for chronic pain relief.
- Receptors: Studying NMDA receptors in neurodegenerative diseases.
