Mebendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic that is active against both larval and adult stages of nematodes selectively binding the ?-subunit of tubulin, thereby inhibiting intestinal microtubule synthesis in the parasite (IC50 = 0.19 µM for Giardia in vitro).{30626,30623} As a tubulin-binding agent, mebendazole also possesses antitumor properties, inducing apoptosis of various human carcinomas both in vitro and in vivo, thus preventing their growth and migration.{30621,30624,30625} Furthermore, mebendazole has been used to inhibit hedgehog signaling in cancer cells via suppression of the formation of the primary cilium, a microtubule-based organelle that functions as a signaling hub for hedgehog pathway activation.{30622} Additionally, mebendazole has been shown to stabilize the transcriptional activator HIF-1? and its downstream targets, abrogating oxidative neuronal death in primary neurons.{30620}
