Diclazuril (CAS 101831-37-2)
QUICK LINKS
Diclazuril is a compound that functions as a potent coccidiostat. It exerts its mechanism of action by targeting and inhibiting the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase in the protozoan parasite. This inhibition disrupts the folate metabolism of the parasite, leading to the depletion of nucleotides required for DNA synthesis and cell division. As a result, diclazuril effectively prevents the proliferation and spread of coccidian parasites within the host organism. This mechanism of action occurs at the molecular level, interfering with the vital metabolic processes of the parasite without affecting the host. By disrupting the parasite′s ability to reproduce and cause infection, diclazuril plays a role in experimental studies aimed at understanding and controlling coccidiosis in various animal species.
