AbstractThe crude root-peel extract of
Flemingia vestita, genistein and praziquantel were tested against some selected glycolytic enzymes—hexokinase (HK), phosphofructokinase (PFK), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), pyruvate kinase (PK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and malic enzyme (ME)—of the fowl tape worm, Raillietina echinobothrida. Following exposure to the various treatments, the activities of HK, PFK, PEPCK and LDH increased by 33–39%, 41–125%, 44–49…

The result indicates that the intrusion of the phytoconstituents in the function of enzymes of energy generating pathway of R. echinobothrida, perhaps dispossesses the parasite from energy production leading to paralysis.

The potential of these findings to validate PEPCK as the anthelmintic drug target for parasitism management is stressed, as antagonist behaviours of recombinantPEPCKs derived from the parasite and its host are reported.

It is hypothesized that PEPCK may be a potential target site for anthelmintic action after it was purified from the parasite and its avian host and tested on phytochemicals from plant sources, which resulted in alteration of its activity.

Role of phyto-products in the changed physiology of cestode and their possible chemotherapeutic targets are discussed and a lot of disparity was noted in the free amino acid pool as the levels of many amino acids were seen to increase or decrease in relation to the levels observed in control parasites.

Following in vitro treatment with ethanolic and aqueous extracts of Punica granatum fruit peel and commercial anthelmintic, albendazole G-6-PDH activity was decreased, whereas MDH was suppressed by 24–41 %, compared to the respective control, indicating that phytochemicals of plant may act as potential vermifuge or vermicide.
