COBISS.SI-ID: 25997607In the invited lecture the audience was updated with the results on Vipera a. ammodytes venomics project in which we aim to describe all components in the venom that act on human haemostatic system. Venom components interfering with platelet aggregation, coagulation cascade or fibrinolysis have been verified as potential lead compounds to develop novel agents for diagnostics and treatment of vascular thromboembolic disorders. The most promising in this respect have been cloned and recombinantly produced in larger amounts for further studies.
