Fungal[1].
AN2718 targets leucyl-transfer RNA synthetase (LeuRS), an essential enzyme in protein synthesis. It acts by blocking protein synthesis through the OBORT (oxaborole tRNA capture) mechanism. By inhibiting LeuRS, AN2718 prevents the charging of tRNA with leucine, thereby halting protein synthesis in fungal cells. This leads to inhibition of fungal growth. Its mechanism is specific to fungi, making it a promising antifungal agent. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Molds (A. fumigatus) and yeasts (C. albicans) have cytoplasmic LeuRS inhibition by AN2718, with IC50 values of 2 μM and 4.2 μM, respectively. T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes are two dermatophytes that AN2718 exhibits strong MIC90 activity against[1].
In vitro, AN2718 demonstrates potent antifungal activity against a range of dermatophytes and other fungi. It has good MIC90 activity against the dermatophytes T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes. Its activity is assessed using standard broth microdilution assays to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of leucyl-tRNA synthetase, as demonstrated in enzymatic assays. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, AN2718 is used topically for the treatment of onychomycosis. Its efficacy in treating fungal nail infections has been demonstrated in preclinical and clinical studies. As a topical agent, it is applied directly to the affected nails, minimizing systemic exposure. Its boron-containing structure is key to its antifungal activity and its ability to penetrate the nail plate.

| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme assay for AN2718 measures its ability to inhibit leucyl-transfer RNA synthetase (LeuRS) activity. These cell-free assays use purified LeuRS and measure the charging of tRNA with leucine in the presence of the compound. The inhibitory potency (IC50) is determined by measuring the reduction in enzyme activity. These assays confirm its mechanism of action as a LeuRS inhibitor.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for AN2718 assess its antifungal activity against fungal pathogens. Fungi such as T. rubrum or T. mentagrophytes are cultured in the presence of various concentrations of AN2718. Fungal growth is measured, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is determined. These assays demonstrate the compound's functional activity against clinically relevant fungal species.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for AN2718 have been conducted in models of dermatophyte infections to evaluate its efficacy. These studies typically involve infecting animals with fungi and then treating them topically with AN2718. The reduction in fungal burden and clinical improvement are assessed. However, specific details of these studies are not extensively detailed in the available literature.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Specific pharmacokinetic data for AN2718 are not extensively detailed in the available literature. As a topical agent, its systemic absorption is expected to be minimal. Its stability in solution is rarely reported. Its pharmacokinetic properties would be important for its development as a therapeutic agent, but specific data are not provided in the search results.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicity data for AN2718 are not extensively detailed in the available literature. As a topical antifungal, its toxicity is expected to be low due to minimal systemic absorption. However, comprehensive toxicological studies would be required to establish its safety profile for therapeutic use. It is intended for research purposes only.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (12.35 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.
