Application

Posaconazole has been used:
  • in antifungal susceptibility testing of Aspergillus terreus[1]
  • as a lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51)-specific inhibitor to study its effects on membrane permeability in Candida albicans cells[2]
  • to study its effects on promastigotes[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Posaconazole is a highly potent broadspectrum antifungal agent against the yeast infection caused especially by Candida sp.[4][5] It blocks the growth of fungi by inhibiting the enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51).[4] In contrast to other antifungal azoles, posaconazole has been reported not to induce the efflux pump mechanism. Posaconazole exhibits antichagasic effects against different strains of Trypanosoma cruzi causing Chagas disease.[6]

    Posaconazole is a recently approved lipophilic triazole antifungal agent that exhibits potent and broad-spectrum antifungal activity in vitro and in vivo against most Candida spp., Cryptococcus neoformans, Aspergillus spp., many Zygomycetes, endemic fungi and dermatophytes. It has been documented that

    Posaconazale is a new triazole drug being investigated in phase III clinical trials for the treatment and prevention of invasive fungal infections. In-vitro and in-vivo studies showed that posaconazole has broad-spectrum activity against most Candida species, Cryptococcus neoformans, Aspergillus species

    Trypanosoma cruzi causes Chagas disease (American trypanosomiasis), which threatens the lives of millions of people and remains incurable in its chronic stage. The antifungal drug posaconazole that blocks sterol biosynthesis in the parasite is the only compound entering clinical trials
    Israel Molina et al.
    Current opinion in infectious diseases, 28(5), 397-407 (2015-07-24)
    The current therapeutic scenario against Chagas disease has been recently updated with the use of the triazoles in clinical trials and several experimental assays (in-vitro and in-vivo models) which are bringing novel and promising evidence for the treatment of Chagas
