Insights Into the Mode of Action of the Anti-Candida Activity of 1,10-Phenanthroline and its Metal Chelates

چکیده
Metal complexes of malonie acid (metal = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Ag(I)) were prepared and only the Ag(I) complex inhibited the growth of Candida albicans. Malonate complexes incorporating the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (1,10-phen) ligand showed a range of activities: good (Mn(II), Cu(II), Ag(I)); moderate (Zn(II)); poor (Co(II), Ni(II)). Metal-free 1,10-phen and Ag(CH(3)CO(2)) were also highly active. The metal-free non-chelating ligands 1,7- phenanthroline and 4,7-phenanthroline were inactive and the Cu(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II) complexs of 1,7-phen displayed only marginal activity. Whereas the Cu(II) malonate/1,10-phen complex induces significant cellular oxidative stress the Zn(II) analogue does not.

Candida haemulonii, Candida haemulonii var. vulnera and Candida duobushaemulonii, which form the C. haemulonii complex, are emerging etiologic agents of fungal infections known to be resistant to the most commonly used antifungals. The well-established anti-Candida potential of metal complexes containing 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands encouraged us to evaluate different copper(II), manganes...

Co(CH(3)CO(2))(2)4H(2)O reacts with benzene-1,2-dioxyacetic acid (bdoaH(2)) to give the Co(2+) complexes [Co(bdoa)(H(2)O)(3)]H(2)O (1a) and [Co(bdoa)(H(2)O)(3)] 3.5H(2)O (1b). Subsequent reaction of 1a with 1,10- phenanthroline produces [CO(phen)(3)] bdoa10H(2)O (2a) and {[CO(phen)(3)](bdoa)}(2)24H(2)O (2b). Molecular structures of 1b and 2b were determined crystallographically. In 1b the bdoa(...

1,10-Phenanthroline (phen) and metal-phen complexes display fungicidal and fungiststic activity, disrupt mitochondrial function and induce oxidative stress. We have examined the effect of these drugs on the structure of yeast and mammalian cell organelles and the integrity of cellular DNA. Exposure of Candida albicans to [Mn(phen)2(mal)].2H2O or [Ag2(phen)3(mal)].2H2O (mal H2 = malonic acid) re...
