Biological Activity

[Description]:

Voriconazole (UK-109496) camphorsulfonate is a second-generation, broad-spectrum triazole antifungal agent that inhibits fungal ergosterol biosynthesis. Voriconazole camphorsulfonate exerts its antifungal activity by inhibition of 14-α-lanosterol demethylation, which is mediated by fungal cytochrome P450 enzymes[1][2].

[In Vitro]

Voriconazole camphorsulfonate has great activity against S. apiospermum and C. neoformans with the MICs of 0.5 μg/mL and 0.125–0.25 μg/mL, respectively[1]. Voriconazole camphorsulfonate inhibits the cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent enzyme 14-alpha-sterol demethylase, thereby disrupting the cell membrane and halting fungal growth[2].

[In Vivo]

Voriconazole (5-20 mg/kg; p.o. for 21 days) camphorsulfonate prolongs survival in a dose-dependent fashion. Voriconazole (40 mg/kg/day) camphorsulfonate decreases the fungal burden in the lungs[3]. Animal Model: Male specific-pathogen-free BALB/cByJ mice[3] Dosage: 1, 5, 20 mg/kg/day Administration: P.o. once daily for 21 days Result: Improved survival in a dose-response fashion, with median survival times (MSTs) of 21, 28, and 35 days with doses of 1, 5, and 20 mg/kg, respectively.
