Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the toxicity and mechanisms of giant jellyfish venom extracted from tentacles (TE) and nematocysts (NV), identifying 239 and 225 toxin proteins respectively.
  • Both extracts caused heart and liver damage through cell death and inflammation, with TE showing greater toxicity in experiments.
  • The research also suggested that PACOCF3, a phospholipase A2 inhibitor, significantly improved survival rates in mice, highlighting its potential as an antidote and the importance of extraction methods for studying jellyfish venom.
