mebendazole and Astrocytoma, Grade IV

mebendazole has been researched along with Astrocytoma, Grade IV in 3 studies

Mebendazole: A benzimidazole that acts by interfering with CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM and inhibiting polymerization of MICROTUBULES.
mebendazole : A carbamate ester that is methyl 1H-benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate substituted by a benzoyl group at position 5.
