title: Effect of piperazine on the level of phospholipids and on the activities of certain enzymes of phospholipid metabolism in human Ascaris lumbricoides.
abstract: The phospholipid level in the human parasitic nematode Ascaris lumbricoides is decreased by piperazine, by partially stimulating catabolic enzymes such as phospholipase C and partially inhibiting anabolic enzymes such as choline kinase.
