Immunomodulating Activity of Antifungal Drugs

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1993
1. The immunomodulating activity of antifungal drugs was reviewed. Although results are conflicting, all azole drugs tend to be immunosuppressive, except for fluconazole, which has no immunologic effect. In contrast, the polyene antibiotic amphotericin B (AMPH) is immunostimulatory. 2. AMPH induced host resistance to Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in

The antifungal activity of ketoconazole

The American Journal of Medicine, 1983
The antifungal properties of ketoconazole were investigated both in vitro and in vivo. The antifungal potency of ketoconazole in vitro was studied in Sabouraud's broth for 715 fungal strains belonging to 85 species and several strains were tested in other media, including Eagle's minimal essential medium.

Antifungal Activity of Crown Ethers

Journal of Inclusion Phenomena, 1984
Some crown ethers were found to show significant antifungal activity against some wood-decay fungi, phytopathogenic fungi and eumycetes,Trichophytons for dermatomycosis. Their toxicity was evaluated by the paper disc method as well as by determining the values of ED50, i.e., the concentration which inhibits the mycelium growth by 50%.

Antifungal Activity of Artemisinin Derivatives

Journal of Natural Products, 2005
A series of 29 artemisinin derivatives (2-30), including four new compounds (16-18, 20), together with artemisinin (1), artemisinic acid (31), and arteannuin B (32), were tested for antifungal activity against two opportunistic pathogens, Candida albicans and Cryptoccocus neoformans.

Antifungal activity of dermatological shampoos

Archives of Dermatological Research, 1982
The effect of several "medicated" shampoos on the growth of a variety of fungi was determined. Shampoos with as low as 0.5% coal tar were inhibitory to all strains, 2.5% selenium sulfide and 1 and 2% zinc pyrithione were significantly more inhibitory. Since these shampoos have substantivity for the human scalp, they may be useful as adjunctive therapy ...

Antifungal and Antibacterial Activity of Propolis

Current Nutrition & Food Science, 2007
Propolis is a natural substance collected by bees from local flora. Propolis is increasingly used in health-food manufacturing practices since in addition to the antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral characteristics, it also strengthens the immunity and has a strong antioxidative effect.

Antifungal Activity of Griseofulvin Derivatives against Phytopathogenic Fungi in Vitro and in Vivo and Three-Dimensional Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship Analysis.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2019
With environmental pollution, residual hazards accumulate and severe drug resistance and many other problems appear; some highly toxic drugs have been banned, and antifungal agents are far from satisfactory. Natural products play an important role in the

Antifungal and Antiparasitic Activities of Lactoferrin

Anti-Infective Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2009
The first function attributed to lactoferrin, an iron-binding protein belonging to the non-immune natural de- fences, was antimicrobial activity related to its capability of sequestering iron. Many other antimicrobial and antiviral functions have been ascribed to lactoferrin.

Antifungal peptides: To be or not to be membrane active

Biochimie, 2016
Most antifungal peptides (AFPs), if not all, have membrane activity, while some also have alternative targets. Fungal membranes share many characteristics with mammalian membranes with only a few differences, such as differences in sphingolipids, phosphatidylinositol (PI) content and the main sterol is ergosterol.

Tetrazole hybrids and their antifungal activities

European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Fungi, which can cause serious infections, results in more than 1.35 million deaths annually throughout the world. Azole antifungal drugs which could inhibit the enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, occupy an important position in the treatment of fungal infections.
