Neuroprotection from induced glutamate excitotoxicity by Conus brunneus conopeptides in a stroke-related model

Cone snails are carnivorous marine mollusks, utilizing their neuropeptide-rich venom for prey capture. The venom of Conus brunneus, a wide-spread Eastern Pacific vermivore, has not been extensively studied. In the current work, peptides from the dissected venom were characterized and tested using pr...
