Thiabendazole
Thiabendazole is a benzimidazole anthelmintic that inhibits the helminth-specific enzyme fumarate reductase and interferes with microtubule assembly by binding to beta-tubulin, disrupting energy metabolism and cellular structure in parasitic nematodes. It is used for treatment of strongyloidiasis, cutaneous larva migrans, and visceral larva migrans, and is also used as an antifungal agent in agriculture. Its broad antiparasitic spectrum and mechanism of action on parasite-specific metabolic pathways provide selectivity over mammalian cells.

Cơ chế tác dụng
Disrupts microtubule dynamics by binding to tubulin, preventing the formation of the mitotic spindle and arresting cell division at metaphase. This induces apoptosis in rapidly dividing cells.
