Parconazole
Parconazole is an orally active imidazole derivative and antifungal (fungal) agent. Parconazole inhibits sterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) and Δ22-desaturase (CYP61), disrupting fungal Ergosterol (HY-N0181) biosynthesis by reducing the availability of ergosterol and promoting the accumulation of 14-methyl sterols. Parconazole exhibits in vitro antifungal activity against dermatophytes, Candida species, Blastomyces dermatitidis yeast, piedraia, and actinomycetes. Parconazole can be used in the study of fungal infections.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Parconazole (0.01-100 mg/L; 30-2000 nM) inhibits the in vitro growth of diverse fungi, with 50% inhibition of Candida albicans growth occurring at 30 nM in CYG medium and complete inhibition of dermatophyte growth occurring at 1-10 mg/L in Sabouraud liquid medium[1].
Parconazole selectively inhibits Candida albicans cytochrome P450, with far higher affinity for the fungal enzyme than for three different mammalian cytochrome P450 isoforms[1].
