Anthelminthic Agents

Anthelminthic Agents

Anthelmintic drugs differ significantly from antiparasitic therapies targeting protozoa, primarily due to differences in parasite biology. Whereas most protozoal treatments act on proliferating cells, anthelmintics are typically directed against mature, nonproliferative helminths. The therapeutic approach considers the helminth's reliance on neuromuscular coordination, glucose metabolism, and microtubular integrity for survival, reproduction, and localization within the host. Most anthelmintics...

Summary:

This review covers the epidemiological status of fascioliasis.
It details progress in diagnostic methods, therapeutic strategies, and vaccine research.
The challenges of drug resistance and the role of omics in understanding Fasciola spp. are discussed.

Impact:

Improved diagnostic accuracy for fascioliasis.
Development of novel and effective treatments.
Strategies to combat drug resistance in Fasciola parasites.
Potential for new vaccine candidates against fascioliasis.
