Description and Uses
Amphotericin B (1397-89-3) is a powerful antimycotic, effective against a wide variety of fungi, including yeast, via two mechanisms: forming pores in the plasma membrane, leading to leakage and death1, and causing oxidative stress2. Other mechanisms have more recently been proposed, including formation of intracellular amphotericin B-containing vesicular bodies that target vacuoles.3 Amphotericin B is also effective against some parasites, such as Leishmania spp.4 Because of its potency and broad-spectrum activity, it is a common additive used to maintain sterility in cell culture and viral transport media.
Amphotericin B (Funizone) is an antifungal macrolide antibiotic produced by Streptomyces nodosus that has been used as an alternative, albeit more toxic, drug to the antimonials. See also Amebiasis (Amebic Dysentery) . It acts as a leishmanicide against the visceral and mucocutaneous forms of the disease. To overcome its potentially severe nephrotoxicity, the drug must be administered over an extended period of time.
