Butenafine
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Butenafine (KP363) is a potent and broad spectrum benzylamine antifungal agent. Butenafine inhibits fungal ergosterol biosynthesis at the point of squalene epoxidation, leading to a deficiency of the fungal cell membranes. Butenafine is effective against dermatophytes infections, such as tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea versicolor.

Description
IC50 & Target
IC50: antifungal[1]
In Vitro
Butenafine demonstrates comparable activity against the dermatophytes with a MIC range of 0.03-0.25 μg/ml. It displays limited activity against the yeast Candida albicans and no activity against Malassezia furfur[1].Butenafine (25; 50 or 100 μM) eliminates the promastigote forms of L. amazonensis and L. braziliensis in a dose-dependent manner, and shows EC50 values of 34.10±3.76 μM and 81.25±10.24 μM, respectively, in peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c mice. Butenafine induces mild cytotoxicity in peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c mice with a CC50 of 97.88 μM[1].
