Researchers at Wanan Medical College in China investigated the effects of an extract from Agkistrodon halys (Siberian pit viper) venom on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced myocardial injury. They reported their findings in an article published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that A. halys venom has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can alleviate LPS-induced myocardial injury.
