Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective
The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Mechanism of action of oritavancin and related glycopeptide antibiotics [PDF]
Oritavancin (LY333328) is a semisynthetic glycopeptide antibiotic having excellent bactericidal activity against glycopeptide-susceptible and -resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Oritavancin is the N-alkyl-p-chlorophenylbenzyl derivative of chloroeremomycin (LY264826) and is currently in phase III clinical trials for use in Gram-positive infections ...

Abstract Since the emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 at the end of 2019, the virus has caused significant global health and economic disruptions. Despite the rapid development of antiviral vaccines and some approved treatments such as remdesivir and paxlovid, effective antiviral pharmacological treatments for COVID‐19 patients remain limited. This study explores
