Overview

This study shows menthol enhances muscle contractions in Ascaris suum, indicating it may aid cholinergic therapy.

Key Points

  • Menthol significantly enhances muscle contractions in Ascaris suum when paired with cholinergic agonists.
  • The contractions influenced by menthol can be sensitive to monepantel, an nAChR antagonist.
  • This combination may improve疗效, helping to combat the resistance of parasites to conventional treatments.
  • Using menthol alongside pyrantel and levamisole may reduce required doses and limit toxicity risks.
