Abstract
â¶ Venom induces ultrastructural changes in nucleus and nucleoli but not mitochondria. â¶ Venom-treated cells bind annexin v to plasma membranes within 15Â min. â¶ Mitochondrial membrane potential is depressed in cells injured by venom. â¶ Extensive vacuolization occurred in the cytoplasm 3Â h after venom treatment. â¶ Caspase 3 was activated in cells incubated with lethal doses of venom.
