Description and Uses

Tolnaftate is a thiocarbamate antifungal agent. It is active against clinical isolates of the dermatophytes T. rubrum, T. mentagraphytes, T. verrucosum, E. floccosum, and M. canis (MIC50s = 50, 100, 6, 50, and 50 ng/ml, respectively), as well as 18 additional yeast and filamentous fungi species (MIC = 0.003-0.8 μg/ml)., Tolnaftate also reduces aflatoxin production in A. parasiticus in a concentration-dependent manner. It inhibits squalene epoxidase with an IC50 value of 12.5 μg/ml in a cell-free assay.

Tolnaftate is used to study the mechanism of ergosterol (sterol) biosynthesis at the rate-limiting step of squalene epoxidase inhibition. Tolnaftate is clinically used to treat cutaneous infections such as athlete?s foot, jock itch, and ringworm1. It also has been used as a comparator compound for antifungal efficiency studies.
