Macrothele raveni
Macrothele raveni is a mygalomorph spider species, originally discovered in Guangxi. It is found throughout Ningming County.
Some raventoxins were originally isolated from the venom of M. raveni. Because of its effectiveness against certain cancer cell lines, such as K562 cells and Hep G2 cells, its venom has been considered for further research in treating leukemia. It has also been shown that M. raveni venom induces apoptosis in HeLa cells.
