Ciclopirox
Ciclopirox is a broad-spectrum synthetic antifungal agent that acts by chelating trivalent metal ions like Fe3+, disrupting essential fungal enzymes and cell wall integrity. Its additional anti-inflammatory properties arise from inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase. This mechanism supports its research use in studying dermatophyte infections and inflammatory pathways in both in vitro and in vivo models.
