Most drugs used in its treatment have low bioavailability and reduced activity against larvae. Therefore, there is an urgent need for safe and effective medications. This study aimed to investigate the<jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory efficacy of olibanum (OL) extract, alone or combined with albendazole (ABZ) during both intestinal and muscular phases of trichinosis. Male Swiss albino mice (n = 130) were allocated to seven groups, with 20 mice in each group except for the negative control group (10 mice): negative control (GI), positive control (GII), OL25- treated (GIII), OL50- treated (GIV), ABZ50- treated (GV), OL25 + ABZ25 (GVI), and OL50 + ABZ25 (GVII). For intestinal and muscular phase analysis, each group was divided into two subgroups based on euthanizing day (6 and 35 days post-infection). The drug\u2019s efficacy was evaluated through parasitological, biochemical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical studies. OL extract at both concentrations (25 mg\/kg\/d, 50 mg\/kg\/d) significantly reduced adult (53.7% and 68.1%, respectively) and larval counts (57.3% and 78.8%, respectively). It improved the histopathological changes in intestine and muscle. The expression of CD8<jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>T cells and the serum level of IL-10 increased significantly during both intestinal and muscular phases (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt; 0.05) in OL50 treated mice. Additionally, OL decreased abnormal levels of liver enzymes (ALT &amp; AST). Its effects were dose-dependent in both adult and larval stages. In conclusion, OL exhibits promising<jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>activity against both stages of<jats:italic>Trichinella spiralis<\/jats:italic>infection, particularly at the intramuscular phase. It can be safe as an alternative treatment for trichinosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022149x23000214","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,26]],"date-time":"2023-05-26T08:49:25Z","timestamp":1685090965000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Evaluation
