Morphological changes induced by the snake venom from Philodryas nattereri Steindachner in rats
Keywords:
bleeding, opisthoglyphous, DipsadidaeAbstract
Philodryas nattereri snake is commonly distributed in arid and semiarid regions of northeast of Brazil. There is a shortage in the literature on the systemic effects of this venom in animals and humans. After 2h of intraperitoneally injection with different doses in rats, hemorrhagic zones in skin and the abdominal muscles were observed as well as presence of abundant erytrocytes in alveolar spaces and pulmonary congestion, hypereosinophilic cytoplasm in cells of cardiac muscle. Kidney and liver showed Histopathological changes. The snake venom of Philodryas nattereri was capable of causing bleedind in different organs and morphological changes after poisoning.
