Antifungal Agents Polyene antibioticPolyene antibiotic The polyene antibiotics bind with sterols in the fungal cell membrane, principally ergosterol. This causes the cell's contents to leak out and the cell dies. Animal cells contain cholesterol instead of ergosterol and so they are much less susceptible.The polyene antibiotics bind with sterols in the fungal cell membrane, principally ergosterol.

Nystatin: The first antibiotic against fungi Like many other antimycotics and antibiotics, nystatin is of bacterial origin. It was isolated from Streptomyces noursei in 1950 by Elizabeth Lee Hazen and Rachel Fuller Brown, who were doing research for the Division of Laboratories and Research of the New York State Department of Health. The soil sample where they discovered nystatin, was from the garden of Hazen's friends called Nourses, therefore the strain was called noursei. Hazen and Brown named nystatin after the New York State Public Health Department (now known as the Wadsworth Center) in 1954.Like many other antimycotics and antibiotics, nystatin is of bacterial origin.

Antifungal Agents Imidazole and triazoleImidazole and triazole The imidazole and triazole groups of antifungal drugs inhibit the enzyme cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase. This enzyme converts lanosterol to ergosterol, and is required in fungal cell membrane synthesis. These drugs also block steroid synthesis in humans.The imidazole and triazole groups of antifungal drugs inhibit the enzyme cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase.
