Efficacy of ambruticin analogs in a murine model of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis.
    Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2006, Volume: 50, Issue:10

    Ambruticins are a family of polyketides. The antifungal activity of an ambruticin, KOSN-2079, was tested in the mouse model of invasive aspergillosis. KOSN-2079 significantly reduced pulmonary fungal burdens and improved survival over that with the vehicle control. These results support the continued development of ambruticins as antifungal agents.

Efficacy of ambruticin analogs in a murine model of coccidioidomycosis.
    Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2006, Volume: 50, Issue:10

    Ambruticin S, an antifungal cyclopropyl-pyran acid, showed curative effects against murine coccidioidal infection. Two analogs of this compound with greater in vitro potency were tested against lethal murine Coccidioides infection. Both improved the survival of mice over that of controls; one resulted in near-sterilization of infection.
