Background: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common vaginal infection caused by candida species, affecting 70% of the women. It may occur due to the imbalance in the vaginal micro-biodata, pregnancy, diabetes, use of antibiotics, frequent sexual activities or AIDS. Aim: The main aim of this review is to provide overview about different vaginal delivery systems for the administration of antifungal agents like conventional, mucoadhesive and muco-penetrating delivery systems. Method: The conventional delivery systems available are having limited efficacy due to the less residence time and adverse effects. In order to overcome these issues, delivery system with mucoadhesive and muco-penetrating properties is required. Mucoadhesive polymers are having excellent binding properties with mucin and thus increasing residence time. On the other hand, muco-penetrating polymers transport the antifungal agents across the mucus layer. Results: This review summarizes the pathophysiology of VVC along with novel delivery systems for the treatment of infection through mucoadhesive and muco-penetrating approaches. Surface modifications of nano/ microparticles with mucoadhesive or muco-penetrating particles may results delivery systems with improved therapeutic efficacy. Conclusion: Based on the available data conventional and mucoadhesive drug delivery systems have some limitations, still requires improvement/ development for safe and effective delivery of antifungal agents.

Hybrid materials based on Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles (MSN) have attracted plentiful attention due to the versatility of their chemistry, and the field of Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) is not an exception. MSN present desirable biocompatibility, high surface area values, and a well-studied surface reactivity for tailoring a vast diversity of chemical moieties. Particularly important for DDS applications is the use of external stimuli for drug release. In this context, light is an exceptional alternative due to its high degree of spatiotemporal precision and non-invasive character, and a large number of promising DDS based on photoswitchable properties of azobenzenes have been recently reported. This review covers the recent advances in design of DDS using light as an external stimulus mostly based on literature published within last years with an emphasis on usually overlooked underlying chemistry, photophysical properties, and supramolecular complexation of azobenzenes.

In recent years, a very interest in the synthesis of functionalized 3-thioxo-1,2,4-triazin-5- ones and their derivatives as vital probes has been increased, due to the important, applications of the medicinal, pharmacological, and biological field as a drug, semi drug, and bioactive systems. The present work review outlines extensive recent advances literature survey on the synthesis of sulfurbearing 1,2,4-triazin-5-one derivatives has been reconsidered. Also, the behavior of these family towards electrophilic and nucleophilic reagents in different media and conditions reported. The biological evaluation of the most synthesized systems included anticancer, anti-HIV, antimicrobial as well as their enzymatic effects (cellobiase produced by fungi) have been reported. The reactivity of these systems depends on the polarity of solvent, temperature, molarity as well as a type of tautomeric present.
