Carbaryl is a carbamate insecticide that inhibits acetylcholinesterase (AChE; IC50 = 13.6 nM for A. gambiae AChE2 expressed in Sf9 cells; Ki = 5.7 µM for rat brain AChE).{39792,39793} Carbaryl administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg for 28 days in rats decreases the weight of spleen and thymus, proliferation of lymphocytes, and serum levels of IL-2, IFN-?, IL-1?, and TNF-?, and increases the serum levels of IL-4 and IL-10.{39794} It increases CaMKII, GAP-43, and tau protein levels in the hippocampus and tau levels in the cortex of mice 24 hours after administration of doses ranging from 0.5 to 20 mg/kg on postnatal day ten, whereas tau protein levels are decreased four months after administration with no change in CaMKII or GAP-43 compared with control mice. These effects occur at non-toxic doses where acetylcholinesterase is inhibited only during the first six hours following treatment. Formulations containing carbaryl have been used to control insects in agriculture.
