The ClpX chaperone controls autolytic splitting of Staphylococcus aureus daughter cells, but is bypassed by β-lactam antibiotics or inhibitors of WTA biosynthesis.

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
β-lactam antibiotics interfere with cross-linking of the bacterial cell wall, but the killing mechanism of this important class of antibiotics is not fully understood.

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...

A systematic scoping review of metrics utilized to measure antibiotic consumption in hospital settings

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs were introduced to promote the judicious use of antimicrobials and to combat antimicrobial resistance. Quantifying antibiotic consumption is an important part of AMS initiatives to achieve these objectives.

Evaluating a virtual paediatric adverse drug reaction clinic

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a common problem in paediatric health care. There is limited access to expertise in the evaluation and management of potential ADRs in children, limiting access to these services and creating delays in assessment and management.

Extrapolation and pharmacokinetic protocol design optimization for ceftriaxone as an exemplar for the development of antibiotics for children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Ceftriaxone is a cephalosporin commonly used for the treatment of acute, severe infections; however, there are conflicting data on its disposition properties in children, making it a suitable case study for the evaluation of the appropriateness of extrapolation approaches based on exposure matching principles for paediatric patients and exploring ...

Drug Discovery in the Field of β-Lactams: An Academic Perspective

Antibiotics
β-Lactams are the most widely prescribed class of antibiotics that inhibit penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), particularly transpeptidases that function in peptidoglycan synthesis.

Cefepime exposure in prolonged or intermittent infusion in critically ill children

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Cefepime is commonly used in critically ill children for whom there is a high between‐subject variability. To reach the therapeutic pharmacokinetic (PK) target in critically ill patients, prolonged infusion of beta‐lactams seems to be the most efficient.

Hybrid Macrocyclic Peptides — Synthetic Strategies to Diversify and Cyclize Peptide Libraries in Phage Display Selections

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Hybrid macrocyclic peptides unite genetically encoded peptide libraries with the structural complexity of synthetic small molecules. This Review critically analyzes phage‐compatible cyclization and diversification chemistries, highlights emerging opportunities beyond traditional cysteine‐based approaches, and outlines how future advances may enable the
