Descrizione
Nystatin A is closely related to Amphotericin B. Each is a macrocyclic lactone containing a ketal ring, an all-trans polyene system, and a mycosamine (3-amino-3-deoxyrhamnose) moiety. Nystatin probably acts by binding to sterols in the cell membrane of the fungus with a resultant change in membrane permeability allowing leakage of intracellular components. It is absorbed very sparingly following oral administration. Most of the orally administered nystatin is passed unchanged in the stool.
- Nystatin acts by binding to ergosterols in fungal cell membranes, increasing permeability of the membrane, and creating nystatin/ergosterol based ion channels.
- It also functions as a lipid raft-inhibiting reagent and as membrane associated cholesterol.
- It is known to be a mixture, but the composition has not been completely elucidated.
- Working concentration is 50mg/L for yeasts and fungi.
