Product Description
Diamthazole (Dimazole) HCl is an antifungal compound/agent. Diamthazole HCl may be utilized in the research/study of infections.
Diamthazole hydrochloride (Dimazole hydrochloride) is a synthetic antifungal compound with a benzothiazole structure. It is primarily investigated for its potential antifungal and antimicrobial properties. It has shown promise in preclinical studies as an effective treatment for fungal infections, particularly in cases resistant to other antifungal agents. Molecular formula: C15H24ClN3OS; molecular weight: 329.89.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fungal cell membrane or cell wall synthesis. The exact molecular target of Diamthazole has not been fully characterized, but it is believed to disrupt fungal cell membrane integrity or inhibit ergosterol biosynthesis, similar to other antifungal agents (e.g., azoles). It may also interfere with nucleic acid or protein synthesis. As a synthetic compound with a benzothiazole structure, it likely targets essential fungal enzymes or structural components. Diamthazole (Dimazole) hydrochloride is an antifungal agent.
ln Vitro
Diamthazole hydrochloride is an antifungal agent that has shown activity against various pathogenic fungi, including dermatophytes and Candida species. In vitro, it has demonstrated growth inhibition of Trichophyton rubrum and other fungi. While specific MIC values are not provided, it has shown promise in preclinical studies as an effective treatment for fungal infections, particularly in cases resistant to other antifungal agents. It may be utilized in the research/study of infections.
ln Vivo
Diamthazole hydrochloride has been studied in animal models of fungal infection. It has shown efficacy in the treatment of cutaneous Trichophyton rubrum infections. In a 1960 study, treatment with human immune globulin in combination with Diamthazole was evaluated for T. rubrum infection. More recent preclinical studies have confirmed its potential as an effective treatment for fungal infections, particularly in cases resistant to other antifungal agents. It may be utilized in the research/study of infections.
Enzyme Assay
Not applicable; the exact molecular target has not been characterized. For general antifungal screening, a cell-free assay is not applicable. The mechanism may involve disruption of the fungal cell membrane, but no validated biochemical target has been established for binding assays. For formulation and solubility studies, the hydrochloride salt is soluble in water.
Cell Assay
For in vitro antifungal susceptibility testing, standard fungal strains (e.g., Candida albicans ATCC 90028, Trichophyton rubrum, Aspergillus niger) are cultured on Sabouraud dextrose agar at 30degC for 2-7 days. Yeasts are cultured for 24-48 hours; molds are cultured for 5-7 days. Fungal suspensions are prepared in RPMI 1640 medium (buffered with MOPS, pH 7.0) to achieve a final inoculum of 0.5×103-2.5×103 CFU/mL for Candida or 10⁴-10⁵ CFU/mL for molds. Diamthazole hydrochloride is serially diluted (0.001-100 ug/mL) in 96-well plates. The fungal suspension is added, and plates are incubated at 35degC (Candida) for 24-48 hours or 30degC (molds) for 48-72 hours. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is determined visually as the lowest concentration that inhibits growth by ≥50% compared to the growth control. The minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) is determined by subculturing wells with no visible growth onto Sabouraud dextrose agar and incubating for 2-3 days; the MFC is the lowest concentration that kills ≥99.9% of the initial inoculum. Diamthazole (Dimazole) hydrochloride is an antifungal agent. Diamthazole hydrochloride can be used for the research of infection.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo evaluation of antifungal efficacy, a guinea pig model of dermatophytosis or a murine model of systemic candidiasis can be used. In a cutaneous infection model, Hartley guinea pigs are infected by abrading the skin and applying Trichophyton mentagrophytes or T. rubrum inoculum (10⁶-10⁷ CFU). Once infection is established (typically 7-14 days), animals are treated with Diamthazole hydrochloride topically (e.g., 1-5% cream) or systemically (oral or intraperitoneal, 10-50 mg/kg) daily for 7-14 days. Control groups receive vehicle or positive control antifungal (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, or terbinafine). Efficacy is assessed by visual scoring of lesions (erythema, scaling, hair loss), fungal culture from skin scrapings, and histopathology (PAS staining). In a murine model of systemic candidiasis, female ICR mice (6-8 weeks old) are injected intravenously with 5×10⁵ CFU of C. albicans. One hour post-infection, Diamthazole hydrochloride is administered orally or intraperitoneally at doses of 10-100 mg/kg twice daily for 5-7 days. Survival is monitored daily, and kidneys are harvested for quantitative fungal culture. Diamthazole (Dimazole) hydrochloride is an antifungal agent. Diamthazole hydrochloride can be used for the research of infection.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Diamthazole hydrochloride is a small molecule with a molecular weight of 329.89 g/mol. As a hydrochloride salt, it is water-soluble and can be formulated for oral, parenteral, or topical administration. Following oral administration, it is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The compound is distributed to tissues, including skin, which is relevant for dermatophytosis treatment. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted in urine. The elimination half-life is unknown. No detailed ADME data is available.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No formal toxicity data has been reported. As an antifungal agent, Diamthazole hydrochloride is expected to have low mammalian toxicity at therapeutic doses, as its target (ergosterol biosynthesis or fungal cell wall) is unique to fungi. Topical use is generally well tolerated. Systemic toxicity from oral administration has not been formally evaluated. The compound is for research use only and not for human therapeutic use. Standard chemical safety precautions should be used when handling.
