Terbinafine hydrochloride is primarily used in research to explore its mechanism of action against fungal pathogens. In the laboratory, it serves as a key agent for studying the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. By inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase, terbinafine hydrochloride disrupts the ergosterol synthesis pathway, which provides insights into fungal growth and viability. Research utilizing this compound also delves into the adaptation and resistance mechanisms of fungi, as understanding the molecular basis of resistance can inform the development of new antifungal strategies. Moreover, terbinafine hydrochloride is used in the study of dermatophytes and other skin-affecting fungi, contributing to the broader field of dermatological research.
