General description

Terconazole is a traizole ketal derivative, which is antifungal in nature. It is especially effective against Candidal spp.

Application

Terconazole could be used for the assessment of the effect of terconazole on transduction efficiency of host cells by glycoprotein of Ebola virus (EBOV), and for the assessment of the effect of terconazole on transduction efficiency of embryonic kidney cell line 293T by human coronaviruses.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Terconazole suppresses the growth of various types of yeats and mycelium-forming fungi in in vitro conditions. Its antifungal activity is an outcome of the accumulation of the membrane-disrupting 14α-demethylsterols and ergosterol depletion. This is result of inactivation of cytochrome P-450-dependent 14α-demethylase by terconazole. It is a rapidly-acting and well-tolerated antifungal used for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis. It is also used for the treatment of dermatophytosis and candidosis. The drug may facilitate the accumulation of cholesterol in late endosomes.
