Description

An oxazole compound, tioxaprofen, exerted a strong anti-mycotic activity against Trichophyton mentagrophytes and T. rubrum, which were major dermatophytes from patients. It was found that tioxaprofen was a potent uncoupling agent of mitochondrial respiration. Tioxaprofen inhibits the electron transport between cytochromes b and c1 in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Tioxaprofen blocks the formation of thromboxane most probably by inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase.
