Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the main causes of both community-acquired and hospital-acquired infections and has become resistant to almost all known available antibiotics. Researchers from Hong Kong Polytechnic University and collaborators reported on a new series of indole-benzosulfonamide oleanolic acid derivatives with the potential to be used against multidrug-resistant bacteria.
Researchers at Leiden University have synthesized semisynthetic guanidino lipoglycopeptides with in vitro and in vivo activity gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcusaureus.
Researchers from Henan University and affiliated organizations disclosed the discovery of new bis-substituted aromatic amides as potent antibiotic agents.
The emergence of Staphylococcus aureus strains resistant to almost all approved antibiotics in the clinic poses an urgent public health concern. Thus, new antibiotics exploiting alternative antibacterial mechanisms or molecular structures are critically needed to address the long-term threat of multidrug-resistant S. aureus, particularly methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA).
Antibiotic resistance represents a global threat that leads to high morbidity and mortality. There is an urgent need for new strategies to combat persistent and resistant bacteria.
Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) causes difficult-to-treat infections due to its inherent resistance. Thus finding new strategies to overcome MRSA resistance is critical. Researchers from China Agricultural University reported on the discovery and optimization of a novel series of pleuromutilin derivatives containing benzoxazole-2-thiol.
The development of novel antimicrobial agents is crucial to combat the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, which cause millions of deaths and high economic losses. Researchers from Shaanxi University of Science & Technology and colleagues reported on the design and optimization of new pleuromutilin derivatives intended for use as antibacterial drugs against multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria.
