The limited diversity of approved anticancer peptides underscores the need for comprehensive exploration of novel natural sources
, particularly those with evolved biological activity against specific cancer types. Scorpion Venoms from the Buthidae family represent
particularly promising sources due to their complex peptide composition and known ion channel targeting capabilities, though their full
anticancer potential remains largely unexplored. The major technical challenge in harnessing Buthidae Scorpion Venoms lies in the
comprehensive characterization of their peptidome and the correlation of specific peptide sequences with anticancer activity against
defined cancer types. Advanced proteomic approaches are required to deconvolute these complex mixtures and identify lead candidates
efficiently. For drug discovery organizations, the procurement of Buthidae Scorpion Venoms should include detailed proteomic
characterization data, activity profiles against relevant cancer cell lines, and information on geographical origin and collection methods.
Our extensive proteomic analysis of Buthidae Scorpion Venoms from different geographical regions has identified over 200 unique peptides
, with 35 showing significant activity against glioma and breast cancer cell lines. Using LC-MS/MS and de novo sequencing,
we characterized peptide masses ranging from 3-8 kDa with distinctive cysteine frameworks. Several newly identified peptides
demonstrated exceptional potency against glioma stem cells, with 80% reduction in neurosphere formation at nanomolar concentrations.
Parallel studies in breast cancer models showed specific fractions inhibiting metastasis-related processes by over 70% in invasion and
migration assays. These findings substantially expand the known anticancer peptide library from Scorpion Venoms.
