High impact information on Bufo bufo

  • In common toads, after systemic administration of the dopamine agonist apomorphine (APO), prey-oriented turning was suppressed [1].
  • Chan Su, a traditional Chinese medication, and Love Stone, a topical aphrodisiac, are both made from dried venom of the toad bufo bufo gargarizans and contain bufalin, cinobufotalin, cinobufagin, and other cardioactive steroids of the bufadienolide class [2].
  • The behavioral studies of Part I have shown in common toads that after systemic administration of the dopamine agonist apomorphine the prey-directed orienting turning movements are suppressed while prey snapping is facilitated [3].
