Abstract
Ciclopirox is a topical antifungal agent of the hydroxypyridone class whose mode of action is poorly understood. In order to elucidate the mechanism of action of ciclopirox, we analysed the growth, cellular integrity, biochemical properties, viability and transcriptional profile of the polymorphic yeast Candida albicans following exposure to this antifungal agent.
