The striped poison-fang blenny is a small, stout fish from the western Pacific Ocean. It has large fangs in its lower jaw and a venom that scientists are studying as a possible new painkiller for people. It sometimes turns up in the aquarium trade.1

The venom targets the body's opioid receptors, which are the sites in the body that pain-relieving chemicals act on. It contains a neuropeptide also found in cone snail venom, a lipase similar to one in some scorpion venoms, and an opioid peptide. The venom lowers the blood pressure of a predator, which relaxes its jaws so the blenny can escape.1

2

Blennies use their venom to stun predators, lowering the predator's blood pressure so it lets go and the blenny can escape.1

3

In mice, the venom did not cause pain, which is unusual, because most fish venoms are painful.1

4

The fish's fangs protrude from the lower jaw, which is unusual for a fish.1
