Essential insights

  • Inhibition of microtubule formation: Albendazole interferes with the polymerization of tubulin into microtubules, which are essential components of the parasite's cytoskeleton.
  • Disruption of cellular functions: By disrupting microtubule formation, albendazole impairs cellular processes such as nutrient uptake and division in parasites.
  • Parasite Death: The impaired cellular functions lead to the death of the parasite, which is then expelled from the animal’s body.
