RESUMEN

Introducción: el veneno de B. colombiensis no es solamente un elemento tóxico; en su composición existen múltiples componentes, que tienen un gran potencial terapéutico, principalmente en el tratamiento de patologías de la trombosis y la coagulación.
Objetivos: estudiar una mezcla de venenos de Bothrops colombiensis de una ubicacion geográfica de Venezuela, a fin de hacer un barrido de sus actividades hemostáticas, que permitirá posteriormente purificar y caracterizar moléculas con actividad antitrombótica y anticoagulantes, entre otras, con potencial terapéutico.
Métodos: el veneno a estudiar, es una mezcla de ellos obtenidos de serpientes provenientes de la Región de Barlovento, estado Miranda, Venezuela. Se caracterizó bioquímicamente por cromatografias de exclusión molecular, cromatografía de fase reversa C18 y por electroforesis a través de SDS–PAGE; y biológicamente por medio de actividades relacionadas con la hemostasia. Se analizaron los perfiles en relación a las actividades fibrinolítica, proteolítica sobre polvo azul y cadena β de insulina, procoagulante, hemorrágica y letal.
Resultados: la actividad hemorrágica, definida como la Dosis Hemorrágica Mínima fue de 8,7 mg/kg. La letalidad, definida como la Dosis Letal cincuenta fue 8,7 mg/kg. El veneno presentó actividad procoagulante y fibrinolítica. Las fracciones mostraron actividad fibrinolítica y proteolítica sobre polvo azul de ocultamiento y sobre la cadena β de insulina.
Conclusiones: las características biológicas de los componentes de este veneno le confieren un enorme potencial terapéutico, ya que contiene una alta actividad fibrinolítica y anticoagulante. Estos compuestos una vez purificados y caracterizados podrían explorarse como coadyuvantes en procesos trombolíticos, dado que disuelven coágulos de fibrina y degradan fibrinógeno, evitando episodios de retrombosis.
