ascaricide









































ascaricides are drugs to treat ascariasis that is caused by infections with parasitic nematodes ("roundworms") of the genus "ascaris" ("giant intestinal roundworms"). the large roundworm of pigs ("ascaris suum") typically infects pigs while "ascaris lumbricoides" affects human populations, typically in sub-tropical and tropical areas with poor sanitation. ascaricides belong to the group of drugs collectively called anthelmintics which expel parasitic worms (helminths) and other internal parasites from the body by either stunning or killing them and without causing significant damage to the host.

common ascaricides include:
ascaricide
"ascaris" species inhibit mcps by releasing an enzyme known as "ascaris" carboxypeptidase inhibitor (aci). this enzyme binds to the active site of mcp and blocks the cleavage of its own proteins by the host mcp.









































section::::evolution.









































"ascaris" has been present in humans for at least several thousand years, as evidenced by "ascaris" eggs found in paleofeces and in the intestines of mummified humans.
