    Journal: Bioorg Chem; 2015 Aug; 61():13-20. PubMed ID: 26051755.
    Abstract:
    This study described the synthesis and in vitro evaluation of eight new derivatives of uridine as antifungal agents and inhibitors of chitin synthase. Dimeric uridinyl derivatives synthesized by us did not exhibit significant activity. One of the studied monomeric derivative, 5'-(N-succinyl)-5'-amino-5'-deoxyuridine methyl ester (compound 7) showed activities against several fungal strains (MIC range 0.06-1.00 mg/mL) and inhibited chitin synthase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (IC50=0.8mM). Moreover compound 7 exhibited synergistic interaction with caspofungin against Candida albicans (FIC index=0.28).
