Abstract
The well known dermatophyte infections caused by Trichophyton species are an ambiguous problem to treat using the present arsenal of antifungals. This study expounds on the effect of inhibition of sphingolipid pathway on Trichophyton growth. Findings from the drug susceptibility assays suggest sphingolipid inhibition severely restricts the growth of T. interdigitale and T. tonsurans. The observed synergistic effects of combinations of sphingolipid inhibitor and conventional drugs provide a promising treatment strategy against Trichophyton infection.
