New Zealand (per Bill Pomroy)
• Little data collation since 1995, but notionally
• Sheep:
– BZs: Nematodirus spathiger , H,O,T, very common
– Lev: Reports in O and T
– MLs: developing in Ostertagia (serious in goats)
• Cattle:
– ML: Common in Cooperia oncophora
– BZs: Common? in Cooperia oncophora, some O.
ostertagi
• Horses:
– BZs: common in cyathostomines

Aspects of anthelmintic resistance
• Resistance is now common.
• In nematodes of ruminants and horses, Fasciola
• Resistance to all drug classes but with gaps in the
matrix
• Why it is so serious in sheep?

Lambs have poor immunity, so heavy reliance on drugs
Merinos highly susceptible to infection
Arid climate helps select for resistance
Haemonchus is highly pathogenic
Resistance to all chemical classes including Moxidectin
Some farms have no available drug choices

BZ resistance
• BZ’s effect to depolymerise microtubules
lost in resistant worms
• Reduced binding of BZs to worm tubulin
• Resistance develops in two steps
– Selection for worms with resistant tubulin allele
with one amino acid change
– Loss of second tubulin gene

Levamisole resistance
• LEV is a cholinergic agonist (acts like
acetylcholine to cause contraction)
• Resistance shared with other cholinergic drugs
including acetylcholine
• Binding studies show changes in binding affinity
and number of binding sites
• Genetic studies fail to find difference in gene
sequence
• Single channel studies suggest changes in
– Expression of channel components
– Differences in phosphorylation or desensitisation

*F1 crosses of these isolates indicate “dominant” resistance to IVM
but “partially recessive” resistance to MOX.
Why we want to understand the
action of AM’s
• Resistance to the AMs is emerging and better tests are
required
• There is conflicting evidence for two sites of action:
– muscle of pharynx
– body muscle
• The aim is to clarify the target organ(s) for the AMs and
describe how they change with resistance
• Sites of action and resistance may differ between parasite
species
• This will allow us to compare sites of resistance with
localisation of expression of putative resistance genes
Avermectin/Milbemycins

Techniques
Larval Development Assay
• 96-well plates, containing
AMs at halving
concentrations
• DrenchRite protocol for
LDA (egg to L3
development)
• Calculate % undeveloped

• Assume action relates to
inhibition of feeding
increasing concentration
Techniques
Larval Migration Assay
• 24-well plates, containing
AMs at ~1:3 dilutions
• L3, 24h in drug followed by
24h migration thru 25mm
• Calculate % not migrating
(L3 left in sieve/total L3)
• Assume action relates to
inhibition of motility
increasing concentration

• AMs -
So…
– All have dose responses and resistance develops to all, but not uniform
– Drugs, especially IVM and MOX differ in resistance profiles
– Have at least two sites of action in most cases
• All species resistant in LDA except
– MOX for our Ostertagia isolate
• All resistant in LMA except
– IVM for Ostertagia; IVM for Haemonchus (in our hands)
• Sites of action/resistance/drugs
– Differ, eg. Trichs LDA-R to all 3 IVM analogues,
– LMA-R to IVM1a, not 1b)
• Conclude
– Sites of action and resistance differ between species, body sites and
drugs
– There will not be a single mechanism of resistance across species or
even within species
• Next we will look at effects on adult worms
