Antibiotics and Bacterial Resistance—A Short Story of an Endless Arms Race
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Despite the undisputed development of medicine, antibiotics still serve as first-choice drugs for patients with infectious disorders. The widespread use of antibiotics results from a wide spectrum of their actions encompassing mechanisms responsible for:

Antifungals and Drug Resistance
Encyclopedia, 2022 Antifungal drugs prevent topical or invasive fungal infections (mycoses) either by stopping growth of fungi (termed fungistatic) or by killing the fungal cells (termed fungicidal).

Biofilm-Associated Multi-Drug Resistance in Hospital-Acquired Infections: A Review
Infection and Drug Resistance, 2022 Biofilm-related multi-drug resistance (MDR) is a major problem in hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) that increase patient morbidity and mortality rates and economic burdens such as high healthcare costs and prolonged hospital stay.

Defence against bacterial drug resistance. [PDF]
BMJ, 1976 Everyone knows that acquired microbic resistance is the Achilles heel of chemotherapy. All living things can acquire some resistance to noxious agents-man to morphine, for instance. Bacteria are no exception: they can become more resistant in some degree even to ordinary germicides.

The porin and the permeating antibiotic: A selective diffusion barrier in gram-negative bacteria [PDF]
, 2008 Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for a large proportion of antibiotic resistant bacterial diseases. These bacteria have a complex cell envelope that comprises an outer membrane and an inner membrane that delimit the periplasm.

Expression of DNA Gyrase at mRNA Levels and Antibacterial Effect of FluoroquinoloneDerived Compounds on Two Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria; Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019 Introduction: Fluoroquinolones are a form of antibiotics capable of influencing DNA Gyrase of bacteria. Any alteration in the structure of current fluoroquinolone antibacterials may provide a better effect on the growth inhibition of bacteria.
