Emodepsid is an antiparasitic substance used to control intestinal worms in animals.

Essential insights

  • Targeting neuromuscular receptors: Emodepsid binds to specific receptors in the parasite’s nervous system, known as latrophilin-like receptors. This triggers signaling pathways that disrupt the parasite's motor function.
  • Paralysis and death: By activating potassium channels and increasing intracellular calcium levels, emodepsid causes paralysis and ultimately the death of the parasite.
  • Selective toxicity: Emodepsid exhibits low toxicity for the host as it targets parasite-specific receptors absent in the host cells.
