Lys49 myotoxins, secreted phospholipase A2-like proteins of viperid venoms: A comprehensive review

Bruno Lomonte

Summary: Muscle necrosis is a potential complication of snakebite envenomings, caused by myotoxins in snake venom that directly damage skeletal muscle fibers. Among these myotoxins, Lys49 sPLA2-like proteins are able to induce muscle necrosis by a mechanism independent of phospholipid hydrolysis. This review aims to comprehensively summarize the historical developments and current knowledge regarding the mechanism of action of Lys49 sPLA2-like myotoxins, identifying gaps for future research to improve snakebite treatments.

Mapping the Immune Cell Microenvironment with Spatial Profiling in Muscle Tissue Injected with the Venom of Daboia russelii

Ana K. de Oliveira et al.

Summary: The pathological and inflammatory events in muscle after snake venom injection vary in different regions of the affected tissue and at different time intervals. A murine model was used to study the heterogeneity in the immune cell microenvironment in muscle necrosis caused by Daboia russelii venom. The study revealed a gradient of inflammatory cells from heavily necrotic areas to less damaged and non-necrotic areas, as well as variations in the presence of immune cell markers in different regions of muscle.

Skeletal muscle fiber hypercontraction induced by Bothrops asper myotoxic phospholipases A2ex vivo does not involve a direct action on the contractile apparatus

Alfredo Jesus Lopez-Davila et al.

Summary: Myonecrosis is a clinical manifestation of snake envenomings caused by Viperidae snakes. The toxic actions of certain enzymes on skeletal muscle fibers lead to rapid hypercontraction and cell membrane damage. This study found that these toxins have indirect effects on the contractile machinery of muscle fibers, as they did not directly affect the main parameters of force development in skinned fibers.

Functional and structural differences between skinned and intact muscle preparations

Alex Lewalle et al.

Summary: Myofilaments and associated proteins form sarcomeres, which are responsible for muscle contraction. Skinned muscle preparations have been instrumental in understanding the contractile mechanisms of skeletal and cardiac muscle. However, there are inherent differences between skinned and intact muscle that pose challenges for experimentalists.

Summary: Sea snake envenoming in Australia, although rare, is associated with significant morbidity and risk of mortality. Early antivenom therapy appears to play a role in preventing severe myotoxicity and should be a treatment goal.

Cytotoxicity of snake venom Lys49 PLA2-like myotoxin on rat cardiomyocytes ex vivo does not involve a direct action on the contractile apparatus

Alfredo Jesus Lopez-Davila et al.

Summary: The cytotoxic proteins found in viperid snake venoms, specifically the Lys49 PLA(2) homologs, disrupt cell membranes and induce skeletal muscle damage. A study on rat cardiomyocytes exposed to myotoxin from Bothrops asper venom showed hypercontraction and membrane disruption in intact cells, but no significant effects on skinned cells. This suggests a direct impact of the toxin on intact cardiomyocytes, making them a valuable tool for further research on snake venom toxins.

Methodological considerations in measuring specific force in human single skinned muscle fibres

Michaeljohn Kalakoutis et al.

Summary: Chemically skinned fibres are used to study human muscle contractile function and specific force (SF) is an important parameter. Variability in SF across studies is due to methodological differences, with solution composition likely being a key factor influencing the values. Despite this variability, consistency in SF values is observed in fibres containing specific myosin heavy chain isoforms.

Phospholipids: Identification and Implication in Muscle Pathophysiology

Rezlene Bargui et al.

Summary: Phospholipids are essential for cellular life, playing key roles in cell compartmentation and various cellular processes. Advances in phospholipid detection and identification methods are helping to understand their pivotal role in life processes. Imbalance in phospholipid homeostasis is linked to human diseases, particularly those with muscular phenotypes.

Localization of Myotoxin I and Myotoxin II from the venom of Bothrops asper in a murine model

Sofia Vargas-Valerio et al.

Summary: This study investigated the in vivo cellular localization of two myotoxins (Myotoxin-I and Myotoxin-II) from the venom of the medically relevant snake Bothrops asper in mouse skeletal muscle. The results showed that these toxins initially interacted with the sarcolemma and eventually colocalized with nuclei during their pathophysiological activities. This highlights the importance of the initial interaction with sarcolemma and subsequent internalization and interaction with nuclei by these toxins.
