View show details

A comprehensive collection of academic research explores the evolution, classification, and future of antibiotics in response to the growing global health crisis of drug resistance. The text provides a historical perspective on the term "antibiotic," contrasting Selman Waksman’s microbial definition with Paul Ehrlich’s focus on selective toxicity and modern broader interpretations. Chapters detail various molecular mechanisms of drugs, such as those targeting cell wall biosynthesis, protein synthesis, and nucleic acid production. Additionally, the sources identify innovative natural origins for new antimicrobials, including animal venoms, endophytes, and microorganisms found in extreme environments like caves and hot springs. The work emphasizes the urgent need for biotechnological innovation and better medical stewardship to address the rise of multidrug-resistant pathogens. Finally, it outlines the current pharmaceutical pipeline and the shift toward utilizing silent gene clusters to discover the next generation of life-saving treatments.
