Bee Venoms
Venoms obtained from Apis mellifera (honey bee) and related species. They contain various enzymes, polypeptide toxins, and other substances, some of which are allergenic or immunogenic or both. These venoms were formerly used in rheumatism to stimulate the pituitary-adrenal system.
Bees
Insect members of the superfamily Apoidea, found almost everywhere, particularly on flowers. About 3500 species occur in North America. They differ from most WASPS in that their young are fed honey and pollen rather than animal food.
Melitten

IL-10-induced anergy in peripheral T cell and reactivation by microenvironmental cytokines: two key steps in specific immunotherapy. (1/345)

Specific immunotherapy (SIT) is widely used for treatment of allergic diseases and could potentially be applied in other immunological disorders. Induction of specific unresponsiveness (anergy) in peripheral T cells and recovery by cytokines from the tissue microenvironment represent two key steps in SIT with whole allergen or antigenic T cell peptides (PIT). The anergy is directed against the T cell epitopes of the respective antigen and characterized by suppressed proliferative and cytokine responses. It is initiated by autocrine action of IL-10, which is increasingly produced by the antigen-specific T cells. Later in therapy, B cells and monocytes also produce IL-10. The anergic T cells can be reactivated by different cytokines. Whereas IL-15 and IL-2 generate Th1 cytokine profile and an IgG4 antibody response, IL-4 reactivates a Th2 cytokine pattern and IgE antibodies. Increased IL-10 suppresses IgE and enhances IgG4 synthesis, resulting in a decreased antigen-specific IgE:IgG4 ratio, as observed normally in patients after SIT or PIT. The same state of anergy against the major bee venom allergen, phospholipase A2, can be observed in subjects naturally anergized after multiple bee stings. Together, these data demonstrate the pivotal role of autocrine IL-10 in induction of specific T cell anergy and the important participation of the cytokine microenvironment in SIT. Furthermore, knowledge of the mechanisms explaining reasons for success or failure of SIT may enable possible predictive measures of the treatment.  (+info)

Lipolytic modification of LDL by phospholipase A2 induces particle aggregation in the absence and fusion in the presence of heparin. (2/345)

One of the first events in atherogenesis is modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles in the arterial wall with ensuing formation of aggregated and fused lipid droplets. The accumulating particles are relatively depleted in phosphatidylcholine (PC). Recently, secretory phospholipase A2 (PLA2), an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing LDL PC into fatty acid and lysoPC molecules, has been found in atherosclerotic arteries. There is also evidence that both LDL and PLA2 bind to the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains of extracellular proteoglycans in the arterial wall. Here we studied the effect of heparin GAG on the lipolytic modification of LDL by PLA2. Untreated LDL, heparin-treated LDL, and heparin-bound LDL were lipolyzed with bee venom PLA2. In the presence of albumin, lipolysis resulted in aggregation in all 3 preparations of the LDL particles. Lipolysis of untreated LDL did not result in aggregation if albumin was absent from the reaction medium, and the lipolytic products accumulated in the particles rendering them negatively charged. However, heparin-treated and heparin-bound lipolyzed LDL particles aggregated even in the absence of albumin. Importantly, in the presence of albumin, some of the heparin-treated and heparin-bound lipolyzed LDL particles fused, the proportion of fused particles being substantially greater when LDL was bound to heparin during lipolysis. In summary, lipolysis of LDL PC by PLA2 under physiological conditions, which allow transfer of the lipolytic degradation products to albumin, leads to fusion of LDL particles in the presence, but not in the absence, of heparin. Thus, it is possible that within the GAG meshwork of the arterial intima, PLA2-induced modification of LDL is one source of the lipid droplets during atherogenesis.  (+info)

Update on the status of Africanized honey bees in the western states. (3/345)

The Africanized honey bee (AHB), Apis mellifera scutella--perhaps better known as the "killer bee"--has arrived in the western United States and in southern California, following a nearly 50-year north-ward migration across South and Central America. First detected near Hidalgo, Texas in October 1993, the bees continue to advance 100 to 300 miles per year by colonizing existing hives or forming new hives in the wild. Although the AHB's "killer" reputation has been greatly exaggerated, the presence of AHBs will increase the chances of people being stung.  (+info)

Mass envenomations by honey bees and wasps. (4/345)

Stinging events involving honey bees and wasps are rare; most deaths or clinically important incidents involve very few stings (< 10) and anaphylactic shock. However, mass stinging events can prove life-threatening via the toxic action of the venom when injected in large amounts. With the advent of the Africanized honey bee in the southwestern United States and its potential for further spread, mass envenomation incidents will increase. Here we review the literature on mass stinging events involving honey bees and wasps (i.e., yellowjackets, wasps, and hornets). Despite different venom composition in the two insect groups, both may cause systemic damage and involve hemolysis, rhabdomyolysis, and acute renal failure. Victim death may occur due to renal failure or cardiac complications. With supportive care, however, most victims should be able to survive attacks from hundreds of wasps or approximately 1000 honey bees.  (+info)

Ultraviolet Raman examination of the environmental dependence of bombolitin I and bombolitin III secondary structure. (5/345)

Bombolitin I and III (BI and BIII) are small amphiphilic peptides isolated from bumblebee venom. Although they exist in predominately nonhelical conformations in dilute aqueous solutions, we demonstrate, using UV Raman spectroscopy, that they become predominately alpha-helical in solution at pH > 10, in high ionic strength solutions, and in the presence of trifluoroethanol (TFE) and dodecylphosphocholine (DPC) micelles. In this paper, we examine the effects of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions that control folding of BI and BIII by systematically monitoring their secondary structures as a function of solution conditions. We determine the BI and BIII secondary structure contents by using the quantitative UV Raman methodology of Chi et al. (1998. Biochemistry. 37:2854-2864). Our findings suggest that the alpha-helix turn in BIII at neutral pH is stabilized by a salt bridge between residues Asp2 and Lys5. This initial alpha-helical turn results in different BI and BIII alpha-helical folding mechanisms observed in high pH and high salt concentrations: BIII folds from its single alpha-helix turn close to its N-terminal, whereas the BI alpha-helix probably nucleates within the C-terminal half. We also used quasielastic light scattering to demonstrate that the BI and BIII alpha-helix formation in 0.2 M Ca(ClO4)2 is accompanied by formation of trimers and hexamers, respectively.  (+info)

On the diversity and heterogeneity of H-2(d)-restricted determinants and T cell epitopes from the major bee venom allergen. (6/345)

One of the main limitations of using synthetic peptides for immunotherapy in allergic patients is the difficulty to delineate the immunodominant T cell epitopes which are necessarily dependent on HLA molecules. We have thus addressed the question of the role of MHC II molecules in immunodominant epitopes selection in the particular case of the major bee venom allergen (API m1). To exhaustively and easily explore it, we used BALB/c mice whose H-2 haplotype is associated with high IgE and IgG responses to API m1. By means of extensive sets of synthetic peptides, we investigated the specificity of polyclonal T cells and monoclonal hybridomas from mice immunized with API m1 and delineated four immunodominant regions, restricted to either the I-E(d) or the I-A(d) molecule. All the peptides were also tested for their capacity to bind to immunopurified MHC II molecules. Eight determinants of high affinity were identified. They clustered into three distinct regions and were largely overlapping. They included all the immunodominant epitopes, but half of them were not capable of stimulating T cells. Strikingly, interacting surfaces with either the TCR or MHC II molecule greatly differed from one determinant to another. In one case, we observed that flanking regions exerted a particular action on T cell stimulation which prevented the fine epitope localization. Our results underline the diversity and complexity of MHC II-restricted determinants and T cell epitopes from the major bee venom allergen, even in a single haplotype. These data also participate in the development of alternative approaches to conventional immunotherapy.  (+info)

Secreted phospholipases A(2), a new class of HIV inhibitors that block virus entry into host cells. (7/345)

Mammalian and venom secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) have been associated with a variety of biological effects. Here we show that several sPLA(2)s protect human primary blood leukocytes from the replication of various macrophage and T cell-tropic HIV-1 strains. Inhibition by sPLA(2)s results neither from a virucidal effect nor from a cytotoxic effect on host cells, but it involves a more specific mechanism. sPLA(2)s have no effect on virus binding to cells nor on syncytia formation, but they prevent the intracellular release of the viral capsid protein, suggesting that sPLA(2)s block viral entry into cells before virion uncoating and independently of the coreceptor usage. Various inhibitors and catalytic products of sPLA(2) have no effect on HIV-1 infection, suggesting that sPLA(2) catalytic activity is not involved in the antiviral effect. Instead, the antiviral activity appears to involve a specific interaction of sPLA(2)s to host cells. Indeed, of 11 sPLA(2)s from venom and mammalian tissues assayed, 4 venom sPLA(2)s were found to be very potent HIV-1 inhibitors (ID(50) < 1 nM) and also to bind specifically to host cells with high affinities (K(0.5) < 1 nM). Although mammalian pancreatic group IB and inflammatory-type group IIA sPLA(2)s were inactive against HIV-1 replication, our results could be of physiological interest, as novel sPLA(2)s are being characterized in humans.  (+info)

A novel Fab-based antivenom for the treatment of mass bee attacks. (8/345)

The frequency of mass bee attacks has dramatically increased in the Americas following the introduction and spread of the aggressive Africanized 'killer' bee (Apis mellifera scutellata). As yet no specific therapy is available, which led us to develop an ovine Fab-based antivenom as a potential new treatment. Sera from sheep immunized against the venom contained high levels of specific antibodies, as demonstrated by ELISA and by small-scale affinity chromatography, against both whole (A. m. mellifera) venom and purified melittin. A nerve muscle preparation was used to show the myotoxic effects of the venom and neutralization by the antivenom. Antivenom neutralizing ability was also demonstrated using assays for venom phospholipase A2 and in vivo activities. Venom from both European and Africanized bees appeared identical when analyzed by acid-urea gel electrophoresis. This antivenom may therefore provide the first specific therapy for the treatment of mass envenomation by either European or Africanized 'killer' bees.  (+info)

Abstract: Alcohol consumption increases apoptosis of hepatocytes. Death of hepatocytes is a characteristic feature of chronic liver disease for various causes. Bee venom (Apis mellifera) has been traditionally used for the treatment of various chronic diseases, such as chronic inflammatory arthritis and chronic liver disease. However, the precise mechanism for bee venom in chronic liver disease is not still cleared. To assess the effects of bee venom in chronic liver disease, we investigated the potential role of the bee venom in the ethanol-induced hepatocyte apoptosis. Bee venom treatment inhibited the apoptotic cell morphology and increased the cell viability in ethanol-induced hepatocyte apoptosis. With ethanol treatment, bee venom-treated hepatocytes increased activity of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL, reduced activity of Bax, Caspase and PARP. In conclusion, bee venom treatment in ethanol-induced hepatocyte apoptosis occurred through the regulation of Bcl family with subsequent inactivation of the ...

Stings from bees or wasps produce a variety of clinical manifestations [1-7]. In cases of corneal bee sting discussed in the literature, corneal complications have been reported most frequently [2-4]. In all these cases, the corneal edema regressed and infiltrates resulted in a corneal scar 4 to 6 weeks after removal of the stinger and the initiation of treatment. Corneal edema has been explained by cell death caused by activation of the complement cascade by proteins in the bee venom, leading to the production of anaphylotoxins and chemotactic factors [1, 3]. Bee venom is a complex toxin having various impacts and components. It contains two types of biogenic amines: non-enzymatic polypeptide toxins (melittin, apamin, mast cell degranulating peptide) and enzymes (phospholipase A, phospholipase B, hyaluronidase). Ocular inflammation increases capillary protein permeability allowing greater leakage of proteins into the vitreous space.. The difference of wasp sting effects depends on the type of ...

Researchers verified, in a pre-clinical model of the disease, that bee venom and one of its components, apamine, are able to stop or slow the loss of dopaminergic neurons, the neuronal cell type most severely affected in PD. They showed that regular bee venom injections are indeed able to slow the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the PD model used, and that this effect is partially due to apamine. However, the complete list of compounds responsible for this effect and the mechanism(s) of action remain to be characterized.. ...

N2 - The venom of Apis mellifera (honey bee) has been reported to play a role in immunotherapy, but existing evidence to support its immuno-modulatory claims is insufficient. Four fractions from whole bee venom (BV) were separated using medium pressure liquid chromatography. Their ability to induce the production of cytokines TNFα, IL-1β and IL-6 in phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-treated U937 cells was assessed. The levels of the three cytokines produced by stimulation with the four fractions and crude BV without LPS were not ...

The effects of mast cell degranulating peptide (MCDP), a toxin from the honey bee, and of dendrotoxin (DTX), a toxin from the green mamba snake, were studied in voltage-clamped experiments with myelinated nerve fibres of Xenopus. MCDP and DTX blocked part of the K+ current. About 20% of the K+ current, however, was resistant to the toxins even in high concentrations. In Ringer solution half-maximal block was reached with concentrations of 33 nM MCDP and 11 nM DTX. In high-K+ solution the potency of both toxins was lower. β-Bungarotoxin (β-BuTX), another snake toxin, also blocked part of the K+ current, but was less potent than MCDP and DTX. Tail currents in high-K+ solution were analysed and three K+ current components were separated according to Dubois (1981b). Both MCDP and DTX selectively blocked a fast deactivating, slowly inactivating K+ current component which steeply activates between E = -60 mV and E = -40 mV (component f1). In concentrations around 100 nM, MCDP and DTX blocked neither ...

Theres been a lot of talk about how bee venom is used in skincare to plump up and firm the skin. This is the low down - bee venom acts as an irritation as if it has been stung with the peptide Melittin. It causes an increased blood circulation to the deep layers of the skin and stimulates cell regeneration and the production of elastin and collagen to lift, plump and tighten the skin. This means that it can be used as a natural alternative to clinical treatments that involve painful needles ...

Bee Healthy Farms: April 2012Bee Healthy Farms: April 2012
Different bee venoms are on the market. I use the product VeneX, which comes in two different strengths: VeneX-10 and VeneX-20 (Table 1.). VeneX-20 is twice as concentrated as VeneX-10. VeneX-10 contains 1.0 mg of bee venom per 1.0 ml. A 0.1 ml of this solution delivers approximately the same amount of bee venom as a natural bee sting. The content of melittin in bee venom is dependent on where it is collected on the hive; the season and the pollen source the bees have access to at the time. Generally between one third and one half of the venom is melittin. Because of these variables the symptoms seen on administration of the venom can also vary. Bee venom is used for desensitization and is approved with the FDA for this purpose. There is an official monograph in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoea of the United States (HPUS), also recognized by the FDA ...

In the present study, to our knowledge, we first demonstrated that bvPLA2 is the major BV compound capable of inducing Treg expansion without altering the total composition of the other cell types in vivo and in vitro. Our previous report showed that BV has therapeutic effects on the MPTP-induced mouse model of PD via modulating the neuroinflammatory response and increasing the proportion of functional Tregs (23). In this study, we showed that bvPLA2 has neuroprotective effects by suppressing microglial activation and reducing the infiltrating CD4+ T cells in the MPTP-induced mouse model of PD. In addition to the neuroprotective effects, bvPLA2 directly binds to the mannose receptor (CD206) on DCs, and this binding induces the release of PGE2, which promotes Treg induction in CD4 T cells.. Microglia are resident innate immune cells of the CNS found in and around degenerating neurons (10-12) that are rapidly activated in response to neuronal damage and significantly contribute to secondary ...

Bee venom is a natural compound produced by the honey bee (Apis mellifera), and has been reported as having the biological and pharmacological activities, including anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-inflammation. In the present study, the inhibitory effects of bee venom and its major peptide components on the tumor invasion were demonstrated. It was confirmed the inhibitory effects of bee venom, melittin, and apamin on the EGF-induced invasion of breast cancer cells. Transwell invasion and wound-healing assays showed that bee venom and melittin significantly inhibits the EGF-induced invasion and migration of breast cancer cells. Also, bee venom and melittin reduced the EGF-stimulated F-actin reorganization at the leading edge, but apamin did not affect. Particularly, melittin inhibited the EGF-induced MMP-9 expression via blocking the NF-κB and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. In addition, melittin significantly suppressed the EGF-induced FAK phosphorylation through inhibition of mTOR/p70S6K/4E-BP1 ...

Apamin - WikipediaApamin - Wikipedia
Apamin is an 18 amino acid peptide neurotoxin found in apitoxin (bee venom). Dry bee venom consists of 2-3% of apamin. Apamin selectively blocks SK channels, a type of Ca2+-activated K+ channel expressed in the central nervous system. Toxicity is caused by only a few amino acids, these are cysteine1, lysine4, arginine13, arginine14 and histidine18. These amino acids are involved in the binding of apamin to the Ca2+-activated K+ channel. Due to its specificity for SK channels, apamin is used as a drug in biomedical research to study the electrical properties of SK channels and their role in the afterhyperpolarizations occurring immediately following an action potential. The first symptoms of apitoxin (bee venom), that are now thought to be caused by apamin, were described back in 1936 by Hahn and Leditschke. Apamin was first isolated by Habermann in 1965 from Apis mellifera, the Western honey bee. Apamin was named after this bee. Bee venom contains many other compounds, like histamine, ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is caused by the degeneration of lower and upper motor neurons, leading to muscle paralysis and respiratory failure. However, there is no effective drug or therapy to treat ALS. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), including acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, herbal medicine, and massage is popular due to the significant limitations of conventional therapy. Bee venom acupuncture (BVA), also known as one of pharmacopunctures, has been used in Oriental medicine to treat inflammatory diseases. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of BVA on the central nervous system (CNS) and muscle in symptomatic hSOD1G93A transgenic mice, an animal model of ALS. Our findings show that BVA at ST36 enhanced motor function and decreased motor neuron death in the spinal cord compared to that observed in hSOD1G93A transgenic mice injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with BV. Furthermore, BV treatment at ST36 eliminated signaling downstream of inflammatory proteins

Bee Venom (BV) has long been used in Korea to relieve pain symptoms and to treat inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. The underlying mechanisms of the anti-inflammatory and analgesic actions of BV have been proved to some extent. Additionally, recent clinical and experimental studies have demonstrated that BV and BV-derived active components are applicable to a wide range of immunological and neurodegenerative diseases, including autoimmune diseases and Parkinsons disease. These effects of BV are known to be mediated by modulating immune cells in the periphery, and glial cells and neurons in the central nervous system. This review will introduce the scientific evidence of the therapeutic effects of BV and its components on several immunological and neurological diseases, and describe their detailed mechanisms involved in regulating various immune responses and pathological changes in glia and neurons.

Although it has been previously reported that bee venom can inhibit human cancer cell growth through induction of apoptosis in many cancer cell lines such as prostate cancer, breast cancer and melanoma, there is no finding of the induction of apoptosis in human T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells by BV [6-8]. Based on our knowledge, the present study is the first report about examination of the synergistic effect of BV with a palladium metal-based component.. Analysis of cytotoxicity by MTT assay proved that BV is both time- and dose-dependent in its cytotoxic effects, given that the Cc50 values of this component were 6.3 and 0.6 μg/mL after 24 and 48 hours, respectively. Due to the inconsistency in the MTT assay data - as a result of precipitation of the BV at high concentrations after 24 and 48 hours, and at low concentrations after 48 hours - only the concentrations less than 10 μg/mL were applied in these experiments. At these concentrations the findings were acceptable, except at 8 ...

Compound Interest - The Chemical Compositions of Insect VenomsCompound Interest - The Chemical Compositions of Insect Venoms
Insect venoms are complicated. Really complicated. You could be forgiven for thinking that it must be a relatively simple company of chemicals that makes up the painful sensation of a bee or wasp sting, but in fact a hugely complex mixture of all sorts of compounds - proteins, peptides, enzymes, and other smaller molecules - go into a small amount of venom. The range of compounds is far too vast to detail every single one - but we can examine some of the major constituents in bee, wasp, hornet and ant venom.. Well start with the venom about which we know the most - that of bees. Unlike many other insect venoms, we have a relatively good idea of the percentage breakdown of the venom of your average bee. When the bee stings, the venom is mixed with water, so the actual composition of the substance it injects into you is around 88% water and 12% venom. From this point onward, well consider the percentages of compounds purely in the venom itself.. The main toxic component of bee venom, also ...

Hymenoptera venom allergy: work disability and occupational impact of venom immunotherapy | BMJ OpenHymenoptera venom allergy: work disability and occupational impact of venom immunotherapy | BMJ Open
VIT is globally accepted as the treatment of choice in venom allergy.15. Although 44 patients in the current study declared a negative effect of VIT on work, caused by changing working time and economic loss due to VIT, most of our participants declared an indifferent effect of VIT on work. Individuals at high risk of sting reported a positive VIT impact on work. This will support the accepted medical approach that occupation may influence the decision to initiate VIT, also for non-life-threatening reactions.5. Another predictor of a perceived positive effect from VIT was completion of treatment. Participants who have already completed VIT are probably more aware of the long-term beneficial effects of treatment. They are less likely to report any drawbacks of VIT, such as the time spent in therapy, which can affect work and social life. A relevant number of participants reported a negative impact of VIT on work and even if we could not find any peculiar characteristic of this group, this finding ...

Alteration of red cell membrane organization in sickle cell anaemiaAlteration of red cell membrane organization in sickle cell anaemia
Bee venom phospholipase A2 and the fluorescent probe merocyanine 540 were used to examine plasma membrane phospholipid organization in the spicules released by deoxygenation and reoxygenation of sickle red cells, as well as in reversibly and irreversibly sickled erythrocytes. Digestion of phosphatidyl ethanolamine in spicules was comparable to that of phosphatidyl choline, and these structures were stained by the fluorescent probe. Both assays suggest that membrane lipid asymmetry is disrupted in spicules. The residual cells, from which the spicules were derived, retain the normal asymmetry in phospholipid distribution between the outer and inner leaflets of the plasma membrane bilayer. Comparable experiments with cell fractions enriched in irreversibly sickled cells revealed a partial enhancement of phosphatidyl ethanolamine digestion, confirming the similar experiments of Lubin et al (1981). Staining of these cells with merocyanine 540, however, did not reveal a subfraction of stainable cells, ...

Tertiapin - WikipediaTertiapin - Wikipedia
Tertiapin is a 21-amino acid peptide isolated from venom of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera). It blocks two different types of potassium channels, inward rectifier potassium channels (Kir) and calcium activated large conductance potassium channels (BK). Tertiapin is a peptidic component of the venom of the European honey bee (Apis mellifera). Tertiapin peptide is composed of 21 amino acids with the sequence: Ala-Leu-Cys-Asn-Cys-Asn-Arg-Ile-Ile-Ile-Pro-His-Met-Cys-Trp-Lys-Lys-Cys-Gly-Lys-Lys. The methionine residue is sensitive to oxidation, reducing the ability to block the ionic channels. Methionine can be substituted by glutamine in order to prevent the oxidation. The new synthesized peptide is named Tertiapin-Q and does not show any functional change as compared to the original peptide, which makes it a more suitable research tool. Tertiapin has been described as a potent potassium channel blocker, acting on two different types of K+ channels. Tertiapin binds specifically to different ...

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, ILL. - If you think summer insects are done setting their sights on ruining your outdoor gathering, think again. Augusts hot and dry climate is the perfect breeding ground for insects, especially yellow jackets. And for the millions of Americans allergic to insect stings, these late summer bugs can be deadly.. According to a report released today in the August issue of Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, the scientific journal of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI), insect sting allergy is increasing, affecting five percent of the population. But what much of the population may not understand is that there is something that can be done about it.. While it does not always cure insect sting allergy, venom immunotherapy, a form of allergy shots, can almost always prevent severe reactions to stings, said David Golden, MD, article author and ACAAI fellow. It usually provides long-lasting immunity even after the treatment is stopped.. Even 10 to ...

Bee Stings 101 : USDA ARSBee Stings 101 : USDA ARS
Try to get the animal away from the bees WITHOUT ENDANGERING YOURSELF. Call your dog inside your house or car. Do not attempt to approach a person or an animal being stung without protective gear (such as a bee keepers suit). If you approach an animal that is being stung, remember that an injured animal may bite or attack unexpectedly. If the animal runs to you with aggravated bees following it, you are likely to be stung.. If possible, douse the animal with soapy water. It is important to use soap and not just water. A mild solution of liquid dish detergent in water (approximately 1/2 cup soap per gallon of water) will immobilize honey bees and kill them within 60 seconds.. Covering the animal with a heavy blanket during a serious stinging incident may also discourage the bees.. Once the animal is away from bees look for stingers. When a honey bee stings, it loses its venom sac and stinger. This means the honey bee dies after it stings, but the stinger may continue to inject venom for up to a ...

This also has bee venom in it but you take it orally. It is supposed to also help with the pain issues. From what I understand....you can find out more at the links below.....there is a substance in venom called mellitin. The Rocky Mountain Lab studied this substance a bit and found that it immobilized lyme disease spirochetes. It also helps stimulate the bodys immune system and is supposed to have 10 to 100 times the anti-inflammatory capability...over ...

What To Do For A Bee StingWhat To Do For A Bee Sting
So, courtesy of my first-ever bee sting and notes from my first aid and emergency care class in chiropractic school from the mid-90s, some thoughts to keep in mind in case you or a loved one is stung by a bee:. If youre stung by a honey bee, try to find the stinger. Honey bees dont always leave their stingers behind, but they often do. The sooner you get a stinger out, the less youll suffer. If youre able to locate the stinger, take the edge of a firm surface, like a credit card or even a finger nail and try to brush or scrape the stinger off. Stingers shouldnt be removed with forceps or with a pinch of your fingers because compressing the attached sac of venom is likely to worsen the injury. If you can see the end of the stinger but cant access it, try using a fingernail to press down into your skin about half an inch away - sometimes, this will allow the tissues surrounding the stinger to relax a bit and allow the stinger to rise enough to scrape it away (this is a commonly used ...

There are also a couple of variations on wasps: hornets, which are larger and have black and white rings instead of black and yellow; and yellow jackets, which closely resemble wasps but nest underground instead of above ground. Like wasps, hornets and yellow jackets can sting multiple times. Their venom (and honeybee venom) can be deadly for those with allergies (and not exactly pleasant for those without).. Also, lets not forget about the other type of bee-the bumblebee. They may have the cutest name, but youll know one when you see one by the fact that its absolutely huge, very loud in flight, and capable of inducing panic attacks in otherwise rational adults.

Allergic reactions to insect stings constitute a major medical problem, resulting in about 50 recognized fatalities annually in the United States and are likely responsible for other unexplained sudden deaths. People at risk often are very anxious about future stings and modify their daily living patterns and lifestyles. Recent advances have provided very effective treatment. For many affected people, this is a self-limited disease; for others, treatment results in a permanent cure. THE INSECTS. The stinging insects may be broadly divided into 2 families: the vespids, which include the yellow jacket, hornet, and wasp; and the apids, which include the honeybee and bumblebee. People may be allergic to one or all of the stinging insects. The identification of the culprit insect responsible for these reactions is very important in terms of specific advice and specific venom immunotherapy treatment discussed later. The honeybee and bumblebee are quite docile and tend to sting only when provoked. The ...

For most people, an insect sting only causes redness, swelling and itching. However, for patients with allergies to these insects, insect venom can cause severe life-threatening reactions. An allergic reaction to an insect sting can involve your whole body and can start very rapidly after you are stung. Possible symptoms include dizziness, nausea, weakness, stomach cramps, diarrhea, hives, itching, or wheezing.

Each episode resulted from several stings by more than one ant. This behavior is typical of fire ants, which will sting repeatedly until removed [3]. The first episode resulted in a local cutaneous reaction with erythema. The second episode resulted in the formation of a 1-cm bulla, lasting for a week and leaving a permanent scar. The third episode was systemic, with the development of a body rash, a feeling of faintness, tachycardia, and shortness of breath, and occurred within 15 minutes of the stings. Fortunately, an oral dose of diphenhydramine hydrochloride, 50 mg, caused the symptoms to resolve. The last episode resulted in two bullae of smaller size ...

Melittin restores proteasome function in an animal model of ALS | Journal of Neuroinflammation | Full TextMelittin restores proteasome function in an animal model of ALS | Journal of Neuroinflammation | Full Text
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a paralyzing disorder characterized by the progressive degeneration and death of motor neurons and occurs both as a sporadic and familial disease. Mutant SOD1 (mtSOD1) in motor neurons induces vulnerability to the disease through protein misfolding, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative damage, cytoskeletal abnormalities, defective axonal transport- and growth factor signaling, excitotoxicity, and neuro-inflammation. Melittin is a 26 amino acid protein and is one of the components of bee venom which is used in traditional Chinese medicine to inhibit of cancer cell proliferation and is known to have anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic effects. The purpose of the present study was to determine if melittin could suppress motor neuron loss and protein misfolding in the hSOD1G93A mouse, which is commonly used as a model for inherited ALS. Meltittin was injected at the ZuSanLi (ST36) acupuncture point in the hSOD1G93A animal model. Melittin-treated animals showed a

Apitherapy News: March 2008Apitherapy News: March 2008
Case Reports: Here we describe three cases of massive bee envenomation, two of which were in geriatric patients. All patients were documented to have over 100 stings, with the highest one being a case of an 83 year old envenomated by over 400 Africanized honey bees (AB). All patients seemed to do well with supportive medical care, and were discharged from the hospital after 3-6 days of observation. The two geriatric patients were given epinephrine in the field and both had an increase in their Troponin I levels. It was not clear if this rise in Troponin I was an effect of epinephrine itself or a direct effect of the bee venom. Both geriatric patients were observed the longest in their Troponin I, and were released without any sequelae. Except for cases of anaphylaxis, we believe that these three cases show that supportive care is sufficient for patients with massive bee envenomation (over 100 stings ...

1) A life-threatening allergic reaction characterized by a swelling of body tissues including the throat, difficulty in breathing, and a sudden fall in blood pressure. (2) A widespread and very serious allergic reaction. Symptoms include dizziness, loss of consciousness, labored breathing, swelling of the tongue and breathing tubes, blueness of the skin, low blood pressure, heart failure, and death. Immediate emergency treatment is required for this type of shock, including administration of antivenom in the case of bee or wasp stings. (3) A sudden, life-threatening allergic reaction, characterized by dilation of blood vessels with a sharp drop in blood pressure and bronchial spasm with shortness of breath. Anaphylactic shock is caused by exposure to a foreign substance, such as a drug or bee venom, to which the individual has been previously exposed. The substances act as antigens, provoking a preliminary immune response during the first exposure that results in a full-blown, immediate response ...

For most individuals, insect stings cause immediate local reactions at the sting site and produce a temporary discomfort of redness, pain, itching and swelling lasting only a few hours. A large local reaction may be more painful with itching and swelling at the sting site and in surrounding areas that may last for a few days. For these latter two reactions, local skin care and occasionally oral antihistamines, corticosteroids and perhaps antibiotics may be required for relief. These reactions, however, do not necessitate venom skin testing and/or desensitization injections with venom extracts ...

Harvard Pilgrim Health Care - Medical Policy for IgG Allergy TestingHarvard Pilgrim Health Care - Medical Policy for IgG Allergy Testing
Serum IgG and IgG subclass antibody testing have been proposed as methods of identifying levels of sensitivity to various allergens, but there is disagreement in the medical community about how effective IgG antibody testing is for this purpose.. After evaluating the clinical literature, Harvard Pilgrim has found that while there is evidence to support the medical necessity of IgG testing for venom immunotherapy, there is not sufficient clinical evidence to support its use for other conditions, such as food allergy. As a result, effective July 1, 2014, Harvard Pilgrim will cover IgG and IgG subclass allergen testing for venom immunotherapy only.

Celebrities, Movies and Games: Wasp WomanCelebrities, Movies and Games: Wasp Woman
We meet Jennifer Rubin as Janice Starlin, the aging owner of a cosmetics firm. She has ALWAYS been the model spokeswoman for her company, but now shes a little too wrinkled and elderly to carry this post on, or so her fellow owners think (including the delightfully smarmy Gerritt Graham). So Janice learns of a doctor (played quite woodenly by Daniel J. Travanti) who has found that using a serum made from bee venom can make one younger. He experiments on a little kitty cat he finds in the alley and lo and behold, the cat gets younger, not to mention the fact that the poor puss also turns into a beecat!!! Anyway, Rubin uses the serum and voila, shes young and beautiful again, but also has advanced cases of paranoid delusions, and oh, yes, when she gets really horny, she turns into the titular monstrosity.

Being naturally curious necessitates spending time for more discovery. This statement holds true in the presence of the conduit and the means for gathering information. As I was curious reading about bee venom and its potential role in targeting tumors, I encountered NF-kB, which I already did encounter it long ago in my virology and immunology classes.. I needed a refresh, so I sought for papers that could help me with that.. What is NF-kB again? It is the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (thats mouthful). It has so many roles, namely in cellular growth, immunity, and oncogenesis. It is a transcription factor that upon activation through phosphorylation by the IKK (IkB kinase) protein, it will go into nucleus and bind to specific DNA sequence.. In its inactive state, it is sequestered in the cytoplasm of a cell. It is sequestered by having its nuclear localization signals masked by a protein called IkB. Thus activation of NF-kB is resulted from the degradation of ...
