In vitro study | Enfumafungin (24-48 h) has MICs of less than 0.5 μg/mL against the Candida and Aspergillus species tested and it is inactive against Cryptococcus , including the decapsulated form (MY2062). |
In vivo study | Enfumafungin (50-200 mg/kg; i.p. twice daily for 2 days) produces a significant decrease in the number of c.f.u. in kidneys of mice challenged with C. albicans , with an ED 90 of 90 mg/kg. |
biological activity | Enfumafungin, a triterpene glycoside, was isolated from an extract of a species within Hormonema. Enfumafungin is an antifungal compound that acts as an inhibitor of (1,3)-beta-D-glucan synthase on fungal cell walls. Enfumafungin is specific for yeasts and fungi (except for Cryptococcus) and does not inhibit the growth of Bacillus subtilis. |
Target | (1,3)-beta-D-glucan synthase |
