Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including https://www.drugbank.ca/drugs/DB01007 | http://reference.medscape.com/drug/vagistat-1-tioconazole-topical-343494 | https://www.drugs.com/cdi/tioconazole.html

Tioconazole is an antifungal medication of the imidazole class used to treat infections caused by a fungus or yeast. Tioconazole is a broad-spectrum imidazole antifungal agent that inhibits the growth of human pathogenic yeasts. Tioconazole exhibits fungicidal activity in vitro against Candida albicans, other species of the genus Candida, and against Torulopsis glabrata. Tioconazole prevents the growth and function of some fungal organisms by interfering with the production of substances needed to preserve the cell membrane. This drug is effective only for infections caused by fungal organisms. Tioconazole interacts with 14-α demethylase, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme that converts lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the yeast membrane. In this way, tioconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, resulting in increased cellular permeability. Tioconazole may also inhibit endogenous respiration, interact with membrane phospholipids, inhibit the transformation of yeasts to mycelial forms and the uptake of purine, impair triglyceride and/or phospholipid biosynthesis, and inhibit the movement of calcium and potassium ions across the cell membrane by blocking the ion transport pathway known as the Gardos channel. Side effects (for the women's formulas) may include temporary burning/irritation of the vaginal area, moderate drowsiness, headache similar to a sinus headache, hives, and upper respiratory infection.

In Vitro Use Guide
The compounds were dissolved in dimethyl formamnide, and water was added to give a final Tioconazole concentration of 1 mg/ml in 10% dimethyl formamide-water. From this solution, serial twofold dilutions of the compounds in water were incorporated into diagnostic sensitivity test agar over an appropriate concentration range (normally 100 mkg/ml down to 0.0 1mkg/ml). Organisms were inoculated onto the surface of the agar, using a multipoint inoculator (Denley Instruments) which delivers approximately 1 id of the fungal inoculum. Candida spp., Torulopsis glabtata, and Cryptococcus neofomnans were grown overnight at 37 C in brain heart infusion broth (Difco Laboratories). The concentration of cells in the culture was determined in a hemocytometer and then appropriately diluted in broth to10 cells per ml. MICs were read after incubation at 37 C for 48 h.
