Scientists have spent over a decade investigating this phenomenon and have now developed a synthetic molecule named BZ371A, poised to revolutionize the field.Led by Professor Maria Elena de Lima, a team of...…Skip to contentIn a remarkable scientific breakthrough, researchers are exploring the potential of a gel derived from the venom of the Brazilian wandering spider, Phoneutria nigriventer, in the treatment of erectile dysfunction.While this venomous arachnid’s bite is notorious for its toxicity, it also induces a surprising side effect: prolonged erections, a condition known as priapism.
