Abstract:Background:
Bungarus multicinctus
is one of the most dangerous venomous
snakes prone to cardiopulmonary damage with extremely high mortality. In our
previous work, we found that glutamine (Gln) and glutamine synthetase (GS)
in pig serum were significantly reduced after
Bungarus
multicinctus
bite. In the present study, to explore whether
there is a link between the pathogenesis of cardiopulmonary injury and Gln
metabolic changes induced by
Bun… Show more
