Science [{“The chemistry of different venoms may also provide a tool to combat cancer directly. Venom peptides, which are short chains of amino acids, manipulate cellular signals by targeting specific receptors. That means some venom components may be able to turn off tumor cell production while leaving healthy cells alone.”}]

[{“In the United Kingdom, Carol Trim, a senior lecturer at Christchurch University, and her Ph.D. student Danielle McCullough have been investigating a protein found in certain cancer cells called the epidermal growth factor receptor, and how venoms from snakes, scorpions, and tarantulas can block this receptor’s activity. In New York, Holford is working on characterizing snail venom peptides with the goal of developing new therapies for cancer and pain management.”}]
