- Abstract
Further structure-activity relationships of a novel series of fungal efflux pump inhibitors with respect to potentiation of the activity of fluconazole against strains of C. albicans and C. glabrata over-expressing ABC-type efflux pumps are systematically explored. Rat protein binding and pharmacokinetics of selected analogues are reported.
