Studies of the effect of diamphenethide and oxyclozanide on the metabolism of Fasciola hepatica.

Abstract:

:Studies were made of the effects of diamphenethide-amine on glucose transport, glycogen breakdown, adenine nucleotides, metabolites and excretory products in both parenchymal and bile duct flukes in vitro and in bile duct flukes in vivo. The most consistent and pronounced effect observed was an elevation of malate levels. There appeared to be no differences between responses of parenchymal and of bile duct flukes to diamphenethide-amine. For comparative purposes the effect of oxydozanide was assessed on most of these parameters in bile duct flukes in vitro. Not all the changes caused by oxyclozanide were characteristic of an uncoupler; however, the pattern of changes in the metabolites was markedly different from that caused by diamphenethide-amine.
