| Name | Albendazole |
| Description | Albendazole (SKF-62979) is used as a drug indicated for the treatment of a variety of worm infestations. |
| In vitro | In sheep lambs administered Albendazole intravenously, the drug and its active metabolite, albendazole sulfoxide, are recovered in tapeworms. In rats, Albendazole significantly increases hepatic activity: it induces a 65-fold increase in CYP1A1-related ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) activity, a 6-fold increase in CYP1A2-related methoxyresorufin O-demethylase activity, a 4-fold increase in CYP2B1-related pentoxyresorufin O-dealkylase activity, a 14-fold increase in CYP2B2-related benzyloxyresorufin O-dealkylase activity, and also leads to a partial reduction in CYP2E1-related p-nitrophenol hydroxylase activity. Albendazole is metabolized by liver and lung microsomes in sheep and cattle as well as bovine intestinal microsomes into its pharmacologically active sulfoxide metabolite. |
| In vivo | Albendazole and its sulfoxide metabolites induce the accumulation of cells in the mitotic phase. |
