Description

Mebendazole is a drug that is used to treat various types of worm infestations, including roundworm, hookworm, and pinworm. It works by causing worms to release the contents of their digestive tract, which damages them. Mebendazole has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in vitro. This inhibition can be due to an effect on the matrix or a direct interaction with the enzyme polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Mebendazole also inhibits cells from proliferating by binding to bcl-2 proteins and blocking the production of enzymes needed for DNA synthesis. The acute toxicity of mebendazole has been shown in experimental animals.
