Pharmacological characterization of venoms obtained from Mexican toxoglossate gastropods on isolated guinea pig ileum
The protein-containing extracts prepared from the venom ducts of Conus austini, Conus spurius and Polystira albida caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of spontaneous contractions in guinea pig ileum. The most potent extract was obtained from P. albida venom ducts (IC50 = 0.11 ± 0.02 µg prote...
