文摘
Several synthetic and natural naphthoquinone derivatives have been associated with antifungal activity. Candida albicans is a fungus that is known to exist in the normal human flora, but under certain conditions it can cause mild to fatal infections. Its pathogenicity has been associated with fungus conversion from cellular yeast to filamentous form Y–M. Inhibition of this process by several anilino-, dianilino-, phenoxy-, and diphenoxy-1,4-naphthoquinones was investigated in order to find some correlation between structure, redox properties and biological activity.
