ABSTRACT:
A method is described for blocking maturation and production of microfilariae in adult filarial nematodes utilizing a transglutaminase inhibitor, such as monodansyl cadaverine (MDC). Experiments applying this method to several Brugia filarial infections, including Brugia malayi, were successful. Higher concentration of transglutaminase inhibitor proved to be filariacidal.
