Myotoxicity of Crotoxin on C2C12 Myoblasts and its Inhibition by Crotalus Neutralizing Factor versus Enhanced Resistance in Myotubes: Exploring Toxicity and Membrane Potential.

Background: Crotalus Neutralizing Factor (CNF) is a γ-type Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor present in the blood of Crotalus durissus terrificus snake. Particularly, CNF inhibits the toxic action of Crotoxin (CTX), which is a major neurotoxin found in C. d.
