As an orally effective benzimidazole anthelmintic agent, fenbendazole was not only widely used in agriculture and animal husbandry to prevent and treat parasites, but also shows anti-cancer effects against several types of cancer, exhibits anti-cancer effects in paclitaxel and doxorubicin-resistant cancer cells. However, fenbendazole’s poor in water solubility (0.3 µg/mL), limits its clinical applications. Even great efforts were made toward increasing its water solubility, the results were not significant to reach anti-cancer drug delivery requirement (5–10 mg/mL). Through single factor and orthogonal strategy, many complex conditions were designed and used to prepare the complexes, the inclusion complex with methyl- β -cyclodextrin with 29.2 % of inclusion rate and 89.5% of inclusion yield can increase drug’s water solubility to 20.21 mg/mL, which is the best result so far. Its structure was confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopic image, 1D and 2D NMR spectra in D 2 O. In its in vitro pharmacokinetic study, fenbendazole was 75% released in 15 min., in its in vivo pharmacokinetic study, the bio-availabilities of fenbendazole, its major metabolic anthelmintic agent oxfendazole and its minor metabolic anthelmintic agent oxfendazole were increased to 138%, 149% and 169% respectively, which would allow for fewer drug doses to achieve the same therapeutic effect and suggest that the complex can be used as a potential anticancer agent.

A rapid, sensitive and reliable ultra–performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS) was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantitation of pyrantel (PYR), praziquantel (PRA), febantel (FBT) and its active metabolites, fenbendazole (FEN) and oxfendazole (OXF) in dog plasma. Fenbendazole–D3 (FEN–D3) was used as an internal standard (IS). The analytes and IS were prepared using simple protein precipitation (PP) combined with liquid–liquid extraction (LLE). Chromatographic analysis was performed on UPLC BEH C18 column using acetonitrile–0.1% formic acid in water for gradient elution. Detection was carried out in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode under positive electrospray ionization. The standard curves were linear through the concentration range of 4–240 ng/mL for PYR and OXF, 15–900 ng/mL for PRA, 2–120 ng/mL for FBT and 10–600 ng/mL for FEN with all correlation coefficients >0.99. The intra–and inter–batch precision was 1.08%–14.26% and accuracy was from 90.66% to 110.28%. The mean extraction recoveries for the analytes and IS were >90%. The total run time was 9.0 min. The developed method was successfully applied to a bioequivalence study after oral administration of compound febantel tablets in 38 healthy dogs.

Fenbendazole, a benzimidazole derivative with anti-tubulin polymerization properties, has been widely used in the treatment of parasitic infections. Because of its anticancer activity similar to that of many anticancer drugs, low cost and few side effects, fenbendazole has attracted wide research attention. The chemical adsorption of fenbendazole and gold nanoparticles are studied by the UV–Vis spectrophotometry, density functional method, Raman spectroscopy and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. By comparing and analyzing the theoretical and experimental Raman spectra, this paper explains the reasons for the difference between the theoretical and experimental Raman spectra. Meanwhile, it is also found that the frequencies at 851 cm −1 , 1222 cm −1 , 1425 cm −1 and 1566 cm −1 are greatly enhanced. It is found that imidazole is adsorbed vertically to the surface of the substrate. It is concluded that Fenbendazole is vertically adsorbed on the surface of AuNPs through imidazole.

Background CRISPR-Cas13a is renowned for its precise and potent RNA editing capabilities in cancer therapy. While various material systems have demonstrated efficacy in supporting CRISPR-Cas13a to execute cellular functions in vitro efficiently and specifically, the development of CRISPR-Cas13a-based therapeutic agents for intravesical instillation in bladder cancer (BCa) remains unexplored.
Methods In this study, we introduce a CRISPR-Cas13a nanoplatform, which effectively inhibits PDL1 expression following intravesical instillation. This system utilizes a fusion protein CAST, created through the genetic fusion of CRISPR-Cas13 and the transmembrane peptide TAT. CAST acts as a potent transmembrane RNA editor and is assembled with the transepithelial delivery carrier fluorinated chitosan (FCS). Upon intravesical administration into the bladder, the CAST-crRNAa/FCS nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit remarkable transepithelial capabilities, significantly suppressing PDL1 expression in tumor tissues.To augment immune activation within the tumor microenvironment, we integrated a fenbendazole (FBZ) intravesical system (FBZ@BSA/FCS NPs). This system is formulated through BSA encapsulation followed by FCS coating, positioning FBZ as a powerful chemo-immunological agent. Results In an orthotropic BCa model, the FBZ@BSA/FCS NPs demonstrated pronounced tumor cell apoptosis, synergistically reduced PDL1 expression, and restructured the immune microenvironment. This culminated in an enhanced synergistic intravesical instillation approach for BCa. Consequently, our study unveils a novel RNA editor nanoagent formulation and proposes a potential synergistic therapeutic strategy. This approach significantly bolsters therapeutic efficacy, holding promise for the clinical translation of CRISPR-Cas13-based cancer perfusion treatments.

The isothermal shake-flask saturation method was used to experimentally determine the mole-fraction solubility of fenbendazole in three aqueous co-solvent blends of 1,4-dioxane/acetone/NMP encompassing the range of 283.15 to 328.15 K. The solubility of fenbendazole in various blended solvents ranks NMP + water (4.852 × 10 −2 ) > 1,4-dioxane + water (14.81 × 10 −4 ) > acetone + water (2.285 × 10 −4 ) with composition of 1,4-dioxane (acetone or NMP) of 1 at 298.15 K. The solubility data rises monotonically with 1,4-dioxane/acetone/NMP concentration at the same temperature. X-ray power diffraction images show that no solvate production or crystal transition appeared throughout the studies. The solubility to solvent composition and temperature was satisfactorily associated by the modified van't Hoff-Jouyban-Acree, quantitative structure–property relationship, and Jouyban-Acree models with relative average deviations of no higher than 7.05 % and root-mean-square deviation of no higher than 1.225 × 10 −3 . In addition, the 1,4-dioxane/acetone/NMP + water blends studied in this paper and the methanol/ethanol/EG/DMF + water blends previously reported both used the extended Hildebrand solubility approach to quantitatively describe the solubility behavior at 298.15 K. The average relative deviations were kept under 4.06 % on both cases. As stated by the examination of the linear solvation energy relationship, the solubility parameter and dipolarity-polarizability of solutions have a significant influence on the solubility variation. The effective method of inverse Kirkwood-Buff integrals was used to investigate the preferred solvation of fenbendazole at 298.15 K. In blends with intermediate and rich ethanol/DMF/1,4-dioxane/acetone/NMP composition areas, the preferred solvation parameters of ethanol/DMF/1,4-dioxane/acetone/NMP displayed positive values, indicating the preferential solvation of fenbendazole by the co-solvents. Thermodynamic examination of the entropy-enthalpy compensation and dissolution parameters for fenbendazole dissolving in blends led to the identification of an enthalpy and/or entropy-driven mechanism as well as an endothermic process. Moreover, the average local ionization energy and electrostatic potential of molecular surface were utilized as effective instruments to demonstrate the microscopic electrostatic properties of acidity and basicity, respectively. The fenbendazole molecule's groups of –N in the five-membered ring and –NH in the straight chain serve as the main targets for electrophilic and nucleophilic assault. The weak interactions between fenbendazole and several solvents were shown using an independent gradient model based on Hirshfeld partition analysis.

Fenbendazole, a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic drug, can be a potential anti-tumor agent. In this study, we synthesized and purified its derivative, analog 6, intending to achieve improved efficacy in cancer cells and decreased toxicity in normal cells. To evaluate in vitro anti-tumor activities of fenbendazole and analog 6 in different cancer cell lines, a CCK-8 assay was performed, and we found that human cervical cancer HeLa cells were more sensitive to analog 6 than to fenbendazole. Furthermore, we explored the associated mechanism, and our results showed that analog 6 and fenbendazole could induce oxidative stress by accumulating ROS . It not only activated the p38-MAPK signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of HeLa cells and enhancing the apoptosis of HeLa cells, but also significantly induced impaired energy metabolism and restrained their migration and invasion. In addition, the modified analog 6 showed reduced toxicity to normal cells without decreased anti-cancer effect. In conclusion, fenbendazole and analog 6 have multiple targets and strong anti-tumor effects on HeLa cells in vitro and in vivo . The optimized analog 6 could inhibit the viability of HeLa cells with lower toxicity than normal human cells, promising to be developed as an antitumor active compound.

Water-soluble glutathione (GSH)-capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized. In pH 7.1 PBS buffer solution, the interaction between GSH-capped CdTe QDs and fenbendazole (FBZ) was investigated by spectroscopic methods, including fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible absorption spectroscopy, and resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) spectroscopy. In GSH-capped CdTe QDs solution, the addition of FBZ results in the fluorescence quenching and RRS enhancement of GSH-capped CdTe QDs. And the quenching intensity (enhanced RRS intensity) was proportional to the concentration of FBZ in a certain range. Investigation of the interaction mechanism, proved that the fluorescence quenching and RRS enhancement of GSH-capped CdTe QDs by FBZ is the result of electrostatic attraction. Based on the quenching of fluorescence (enhancement of RRS) of GSH-capped CdTe QDs by FBZ, a novel, simple, rapid and specific method for FBZ determination was proposed. The detection limit for FBZ was 42 ng mL −1 (3.4 ng mL −1 ) and the quantitative determination range was 0–2.8 μg mL −1 with a correlation of 0.9985 (0.9979). The method has been applied to detect FBZ in real simples and with satisfactory results.
