- Abstract
In some treatments of diseases, there is a risk of possible fungal infection of Candida albicans. The risk of infection can be exacerbated by the occurrence of resistance to anti-fungal drugs, including resistance to azole compounds. The purpose of this research is to conduct a review of new azole compounds in the treatment of Candida albicans infections. This study uses a literature review method. The source of the data for this research comes from journals that have been published and indexed in the PubMed search with several inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed that all new drug candidates of azoles showed excellent antifungal activity against Candida albicans in vitro. In general, all azoles have a similar mechanism of action of inhibiting the enzyme 14α-demethylase (CYP51) through competitive inhibition. Inhibition of CYP51 causes fungal cells to lose ergosterol, implicated in cell death. The new azole compounds showed stronger CYP51 inhibitory activity and can suppress the growth of fluconazole-resistant strains. The new azole compounds showed better CYP51 inhibitory activity against Candida albicans resistance
