Ciclopirox ethanolamine (formerly HOE-296; HOE296; Ciclopirox olamine), the ethanolamine salt of Ciclopirox, is a novel, investigational, synthetic, potent and broad-spectrum antifungal agent working as an iron chelator and used as an antifungal agent for topical dermatologic treatment of superficial mycoses. It is currently being investigated as an alternative treatment to ketoconazole for seborrhoeic dermatitis as it suppresses growth of the yeast Malassezia furfur.It acts by inhibiting the membrane transfer system by interrupting the Na+ K+ ATPase. Ciclopirox ethanolamine suppresses many clinically relevant dermatophytes, yeasts, and molds, including the frequently azole-resistant Candida species Candida glabrata, and Candida guilliermondii. Moreover, Ciclopirox has been proved to inhibit a wide range of bacteria in humans, including many gram(+) and gram (-) species pathogenic bacteria.

In a study to further explain the mechanism of Ciclopirox GMP, many S. cerevisiae mutants were examined and tested. Interpretation of the effects of pharmacological treatments and mutations suggests that Ciclopirox GMP may act by altering some aspects of DNA repair, cell division signaling and structure (mitotic spindle), and intracellular transport [2]. Ciclopirox GMP is a broad-spectrum antifungal drug with anti-inflammatory characteristics that is effective against the yeast Malassezia spp, which is associated with seborrheic dermatitis [3]. Ciclopirox (olamine) (0.9 μM, 24 h) protects human iPSC-derived RPE cells subjected to TBHP-induced oxidative damage [2].
In Candida albicans cultures, Ciclopirox ethanolamine (HOE 296) (1-8 μg/mL) dose-dependently altered the expression of genes encoding virulence factors, iron metabolism proteins, and drug resistance factors. At 4 μg/mL, it downregulated phospholipase B1 (PLB1) and secreted aspartyl protease 2 (SAP2) mRNA by 60% and 55%, respectively; upregulated iron transport genes FET3 and FTR1 by 2.2-fold and 1.8-fold; and suppressed drug efflux pump genes CDR1 and MDR1 by 45% and 50%. It also inhibited Candida albicans growth with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 4 μg/mL[1] - In human RPE cells (ARPE-19) exposed to age-related macular degeneration (AMD)-related physiological stressors (oxidative stress, hypoxia, Aβ aggregation), Ciclopirox ethanolamine (HOE 296) (0.1-10 μM) protected cells from stress-induced damage. At 1 μM, it increased cell viability by 42% under oxidative stress (H₂O₂ treatment), reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by 38%, and inhibited caspase-3 activation by 40%. It also attenuated hypoxia-induced cell apoptosis and Aβ-mediated cytotoxicity[2] |

| ln Vivo |
The effect of Ciclopirox on endogenous HIF-1 target gene-VEGF was investigated using different animal organ models including mouse skin wound model, rat kidney model and chicken chorioallantoic membrane model. According to the results, CPX functionally activated HIF-1, induced VEGF expression and accelerated angiogenesis.

Cell Viability Assay[2]
Cell Types: iPSC-derived RPE cells Tested Concentrations: 0.9 μM Incubation Duration: 24 h Experimental Results: Protected human iPSC-derived RPE cells exposed to TBHP-induced cell death. Real Time qPCR[2] Cell Types: iPSC -derived RPE cells Tested Concentrations: 0.9 μM Incubation Duration: 24 h Experimental Results: Expressed RPE markers (RPE65, BEST1, MITF). Candida albicans gene expression and growth inhibition assay: Candida albicans was cultured in liquid medium to logarithmic phase. Ciclopirox ethanolamine (HOE 296) (1 μg/mL, 4 μg/mL, 8 μg/mL) was added, and incubation continued for 6 hours. Total RNA was extracted, and mRNA levels of PLB1, SAP2, FET3, FTR1, CDR1, and MDR1 were measured by RT-PCR. For growth inhibition, Candida albicans was inoculated on solid medium containing gradient drug concentrations, and colony formation was counted after 48 hours to determine MIC[1] - RPE cell stress protection assay: ARPE-19 cells were seeded in 96-well plates (5×10³ cells/well) and 6-well plates. Ciclopirox ethanolamine (HOE 296) (0.1 μM, 1 μM, 10 μM) was added 1 hour before exposure to stressors (H₂O₂, hypoxia, Aβ peptide). After 24 hours, cell viability was detected by MTT assay. ROS generation was measured using DCFH-DA fluorescent probe, and caspase-3 activation was analyzed by Western blot[2] |

| Additional Infomation |
Ciclopirox Olamine are the ethanolamine salt form of cyclopyrrole, a synthetic broad-spectrum antifungal agent with both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. Cyclopyrrole exerts its effects by binding to and chelating trivalent cations (such as Fe³⁺ and Al³⁺), thereby inhibiting the availability of essential cofactors for enzymes. This can lead to the loss of enzyme activity crucial for cellular metabolism, cell wall structure, and other key cellular functions. Furthermore, cyclopyrrole also exerts its anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase (COX). Cyclopyrrole is a cyclohexane and pyridone derivative used to treat fungal infections of the skin and nails, as well as vaginal yeast infections.
