- Many proteins and peptides in venomous marine animals from the Persian Gulf have pharmacological potential, making it an ideal area for studying their biological activities and toxicity.
- A specific sea anemone was researched for its analgesic and toxic properties, revealing that its venom had a strong analgesic effect and significant levels of edematogenic and dermonecrotic activity.
- Findings show that the venom's potency is high, with notable effects achieved at doses lower than those of other examined sea anemones, suggesting the need for further research on Persian Gulf venoms for medical applications.
