Article Synopsis
- * Batroxase (a metalloprotease) generally reduces the activity of the complement pathways, while BatroxPLA (an acidic phospholipase) can increase hemolytic activity primarily through the alternative pathway.
- * The findings suggest that Batroxase significantly activates the complement system by degrading crucial components and producing anaphylatoxins, making it a key factor in the venom's impact on immune responses.
