AN-2690(Cat No.:I002281)is an investigational antifungal agent, specifically targeting dermatophytes responsible for fungal infections such as onychomycosis. It works by inhibiting the enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, which is crucial for the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. The inhibition of ergosterol production leads to disruption of fungal cell membrane integrity, effectively stopping fungal growth. AN-2690 has shown promising activity against a range of dermatophytes, offering a potential treatment option for patients with difficult-to-treat skin and nail infections.
