General description

Ivermectin is a macro-cyclic lactone,[1] derived from avermectin.[2] It functions as an antiparasitic agent. Ivermectin is used against gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, mites and lice. It is used to treat onchocerciasis, strongyloidiasis, ascariasis and filariases.[2]

Application

Ivermectin has been used:
  • in Caenorhabditis elegans fecundity assay[3]
  • in larval development test[4]
  • to measure in vivo topical acaricide activity of compounds in rats[5]
  • to assess its acute and chronic effects to zebrafish[6]
  • in percutaneous drug injection method to treat cystic echinococcosis[7]
  • in liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection method[8]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Positive allosteric modulator of α7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor; also modulates glutamate-GABA-activated chloride channels.
