Disulfiram, an old drug with new potential therapeutic uses for human cancers and fungal infections.

Zuben E Sauna1, Suneet Shukla, Suresh V Ambudkar.   

Abstract

Disulfiram, a drug used to treat alcoholism, has recently been indicated to play a primary as well as an adjuvant role in the treatment of many cancers and in the reversal of fungal drug-resistance. This review discusses the molecular mechanism of action of disulfiram and its potential use in the treatment of human cancers and fungal infections.
