Effects of methyl [5 [[4-(2-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl]carbonyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl] carbamate on energy metabolism of Ancylostoma ceylanicum and Nippostrongylus brasiliensis.
Effects of methyl [5[[4-(2-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl] carbonyl] 1H-benzimidazol-2-yl] carbamate (CDRI Comp. 81-470) and mebendazole on the energy metabolism of A. ceylanicum and N. brasiliensis were compared. At 10 and 50 microM concentration both compounds inhibited glucose uptake and its conversion into metabolic endproducts. The shift towards the increased production of lactic acid appeared to be the result of inhibition of PEP carboxykinase and increase in LDH activity. The compounds also caused significant inhibition of ATP production in mitochondria.
