Anthelmintics – From Discovery to Resistance

International Journal for Parasitology: Drugs and Drug Resistance, 2014
The scientific meeting entitled 'Anthelmintics: From Discovery to Resistance' was held in San Francisco in February 2014. The themes of the meeting were drug discovery, modes of action and resistance. Both human and veterinary parasites were covered in the oral and poster presentations.

Anthelmintics V: Drugs, resistance, and vaccines

International Journal for Parasitology, 2023
[Extract] After a rather long hiatus for many of us after the COVID-19 pandemic (and while the pandemic was still going on in some form), we met for our first in-person international meeting on the campus of University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA for “Anti-helmintics V: drugs, resistance, and vaccines.” The ...

Gastrointestinal nematodes of Ovis aries in Eastern Cape, South Africa and an evaluation of current anthelmintic procedures [PDF]

, 2015
Humans have known about helminth infections since ancient times. Today half of the human population is plagued by a nematode infection. Nematodes are responsible for billions of dollars in global crop damage annually and have had devastating effects on ...

Antiparasitic activity of chicory (Cichorium intybus) and its natural bioactive compounds in livestock: a review [PDF]

, 2018
Increasing drug resistance in gastrointestinal (GI) parasites of livestock and concerns about chemical residues in animal products and the environment are driving the development of alternative control strategies that are less reliant on the use of ...

Exploring 6‐Hydroxy‐3‐Aryl/Heteroarylcoumarins as Promising Candidates Against Trypanosoma cruzi

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
New therapies are urgently needed for Chagas disease, and screening of 6‐hydroxy‐3‐aryl/heteroarylcoumarin derivatives identified highly selective compounds with potent activity against T. cruzi. In particular, derivative 1f showed submicromolar trypomastigote potency, dual‐stage activity, and inhibition of amastigote‐to‐trypomastigote differentiation,

Gastrointestinal nematode control practices on lowland sheep farms in Ireland with reference to selection for anthelmintic resistance

Irish Veterinary Journal, 2011
Gastrointestinal parasitism is a widely recognised problem in sheep production, particularly for lambs. While anthelmintics have a pivotal role in controlling the effects of parasites, there is a paucity of data on how farmers use anthelmintics.

FEC Check: Development of a decision support tool to aid interpretation of gastrointestinal nematode faecal egg counts in sheep

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 9, Page e373-e384, 2/9 May 2026.
Abstract Background Gastrointestinal nematode infections are ubiquitous in grazing livestock worldwide impacting animal health and production. Faecal egg count (FEC) is an accessible diagnostic test that can guide the need for treatment. However, interpretation of FECs can be challenging.

An integrated social and natural sciences case study for the reuse of organic wastes as soil amendments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 965-982, May 2026.
Reusing organic waste materials, such as animal manure, as soil amendments reduces water and fertiliser demand, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, organic wastes may contain contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), posing potential ecosystem and human health risks. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack

Pharmacology of anthelmintic resistance

Parasitology, 1996
SUMMARYAnthelmintic resistance has compromised the control of nematode parasites in several animal-based industries. Studies of resistance have not only improved our understanding of this phenomenon but also shed light on physiological systems of parasitic helminths.

Reduced efficacy of praziquantel against Schistosoma mansoniis associated with multiple rounds of mass drug administration [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Mass drug administration (MDA) with praziquantel is the cornerstone of schistosomiasis control in sub-Saharan Africa. The effectiveness of this strategy is dependent on the continued high efficacy of praziquantel; however, drug efficacy is ...
