Mechanism of Action
Bifonazole works by inhibiting the production of a substance called ergosterol, which is an essential component of fungal cell membranes.It acts to destabilize the fungal cyctochrome p450 51 enzyme (also known as Lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase). This is vital in the cell membrance structure of the fungus. Its inhibition leads to cell lysis. The disruption in production of ergosterol disrupts the cell membrane and causes holes to appear. The cell membranes of fungi are vital for their survival. They keep unwanted substances from entering the cells and stop the contents of the cells from leaking out. As bifonazole causes holes to appear in the cell membranes, essential constituents of the fungal cells can leak out. This kills the fungi.
Uses & manufacturing
Applications
DescriptionBifonazole represents the first topical broad spectrum antimycotic approved for once daily administration. Its in vitro activity appears equivalent to its structural relative clotrimazole, being effective against dermatophytes, other filamentous fungi, dimorphic fungi and yeasts.
DescriptionBifonazole is a topically-active imidazole antifungal compound that has broad spectrum activity in vitro against dermatophytes, molds, yeasts, dimorphic fungi, and some Gram-positive bacteria. It is effective in the treatment of experimental dermatophytic and Candida in animals. Bifonazole is also a potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 aromatase (Ki = 68 nM, IC50 = 270 nM), which catalyzes the biosynthesis of estrogens from androgens. When applied topically in animals, it demonstrates prolonged retention time in skin with minimal percutaneous absorption, thus minimizing its effect on aromatase.
UsesBifonazole is an imidazole antifungal agent and calmodulin antagonist. It causes a reduction in glycolysis and ATP levels in B16 melanoma cells. Bifonazole is an inhibitor of C14orf1. Bifonazole is an imidazole-based anti-fungal agent with broad spectrum activity against many fungi, molds, yeast and some gram-positive bacteria. Bifonazole inhibits ergosterol biosynthetic protein 28 and Cytochrome P450 2B4.
