Description

Tetramisole is a drug that is used to treat worm and roundworm infections. This drug inhibits the enzyme activity of tissue culture cells by binding to the sulfhydryl group of cysteine residues in the active site of an enzyme. Tetramisole also inhibits sodium carbonate-stimulated ATPase activity, which may be due to its ability to inhibit nucleotide synthesis. The antibody response against tetramisole has been shown to decrease with time following treatment, while locomotor activity and atp levels have been found to increase. Tetramisole has also been found to be toxic in animal studies, but less so than other anthelmintic drugs such as carbon disulphide or trigeminal nerve paralysis.
