Extended spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) producing Enterobacterales: Classification and resistance genetic background [PDF]

Medicinski Podmladak, 2019
Beta-lactam antibiotics are one of the most important ones in clinical practice and most commonly prescribed drugs. There are few possible mechanisms of beta-lactam resistance.

Bacterial resistance to aminoglycosides and beta-lactams the Tn1331 transposon paradigm [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioscience, 1999
Aminoglycosides (Ags) are a group of antibiotics that exert their bactericidal activity primarily by inhibition of protein synthesis. Aminoglycoside (Ag) molecules bind to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit rendering the ribosomes unavailable for translation, which results in cell death.

Tobramycin pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic targets in people with cystic fibrosis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Intravenous tobramycin is a first‐line treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Tobramycin exhibits concentration‐dependent activity; however, excess drug exposure can lead to nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. While dosing typically targets serum peak (Cmax) and trough (Cmin) concentrations, the area under the ...

Genetic adaptation to amoxicillin in Escherichia coli: The limited role of dinB and katE.

PLoS ONE
Bacteria can quickly adapt to sub-lethal concentrations of antibiotics. Several stress and DNA repair genes contribute to this adaptation process. However, the pathways leading to adaptation by acquisition of de novo mutations remain poorly understood ...

MT‐RNR1 genotype testing for preventing aminoglycoside‐mediated ototoxicity: A guideline developed by the UK Centre of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation in Pharmacogenomics (CERSI‐PGx)

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aminoglycosides are broad‐spectrum antibiotics used in the management of severe infections. Aminoglycosides are associated with nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. Although dosing strategies such as once‐daily administration and therapeutic drug monitoring have reduced the incidence of nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity remains unpredictable and may occur at ...

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

Relay Approach: A Convergent Synthesis of Key Fragments en route to (+)‐Neosorangicin A

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A selective synthesis of three key fragments of the antibiotically active (+)‐neosorangicin A is reported, providing a foundation for its convergent total synthesis and proof of strategy via a relay approach. ABSTRACT Herein, we report the synthesis of the three key fragments of the macrolide antibiotic (+)‐neosorangicin A, a compound exhibiting potent

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

Clinical Model‐Informed Precision Dosing Consult Service for Accelerating Personalized Medication in Pediatric Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Traditional dosing strategies often rely on a “one‐size‐fits‐all” paradigm, assuming an “average” patient with typical demographic and pharmacological characteristics. In reality, this often overlooks existing between‐patient variability and can lead to suboptimal drug exposure or toxicity. This issue is especially pronounced in pediatric patients, who
