Rethinking Pain with a Scorpion Toxin

Rethinking Pain with a Scorpion Toxin

Researchers at UC San Francisco and the University of Queensland have isolated a peptide from the venom of the Australian Black Rock scorpion that triggers the “wasabi receptor toxin" (WaTx). WaTx possesses a unique amino acid sequence that can penetrate the cell membrane, something that very few proteins can do. This could potentially enable the delivery of drugs that can’t get across membranes into cells. At Yourway, we are always looking for the next innovative breakthrough and are well positioned to deliver cutting edge treatments to patients in need.
