Article Synopsis
- Bitis arietans, or the puff adder, has venom that causes significant pain and organ damage, and this study explores its effects on liver and kidney inflammation in rats.
- The research involved administering a controlled dose of BAV to rats and analyzing their blood and tissue samples over time to observe changes in inflammatory markers and organ function.
- Results indicated that a single low dose of BAV triggered acute inflammation in the liver and kidneys, with certain proinflammatory cytokines (like IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) showing increased levels shortly after exposure, suggesting that higher doses could lead to more serious and lasting organ damage.
