Despite ongoing antibiotic development, evolution of resistance may render candidate antibiotics ineffective. Here we studied in vitro emergence to 13 introduced after 2017 or currently compared with in-use antibiotics. Laboratory showed that clinically relevant arises within 60 days exposure Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, priority Gram-negative ESKAPE pathogens. Resistance mutations are already present natural populations pathogens, indicating nature can emerge through selection pre-existing bacterial variants. Functional metagenomics mobile genes candidates prevalent clinical isolates, soil human gut microbiomes. Overall, show similar susceptibility development as use, the corresponding mechanisms overlap. However, certain combinations strains were less prone developing resistance, revealing potential narrow-spectrum antibacterial therapies could remain effective. Finally, develop criteria guide efforts effective candidates. An extensive experimental analysis post-2017 bacteria reveals dynamics acquisition, mutational targets presence environmental isolates.

Background/Objectives: Antimicrobial resistance poses a major public health challenge. The World Health Organization has identified 15 priority pathogens that require prompt development of new antibiotics. This review systematically evaluates the antibacterial most significant bacterial pathogens, currently available treatment options, as well complementary approaches for management infections caused by challenging multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. For carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria, options include combinations beta-lactam antibiotics and beta-lactamase inhibitors, novel siderophore cephalosporin, known cefiderocol, older like polymixins tigecycline. Treatment Gram-positive bacteria are vancomycin, daptomycin, linezolid, etc. Although stagnated, various agents with properties in clinical preclinical trials. Non-antibiotic strategies encompass antibiotic potentiators, bacteriophage therapy, antivirulence therapeutics, antimicrobial peptides, nanomaterials, host-directed vaccines, antibodies, plant-based products, repurposed drugs, their combinations, including those used alongside Significant challenges exist developing antimicrobials, particularly related to scientific technical issues, along policy economic factors. Currently, alternative not part routine protocols. Conclusions Future Directions: There is an urgent need expedite treating MDR requires multidisciplinary approach involves collaboration across research, healthcare, regulatory bodies. Suggested crucial addressing this challenge should be backed rational use, enhanced infection control practices, improved surveillance systems emerging pathogens.

Abstract Recent advancements in analytical techniques have unveiled the spatiotemporal diversity of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota and their associations with host well‐being. Despite these insights, precise regulation GIT remains a significant challenge. Currently, microbial regulatory strategies, including fecal transplantation (FMT), synthetic communities (SynComs), genetically engineered microorganisms (GEMs), phages, nanomaterials, are increasingly utilized for influence on microbiota. This review emphasizes necessity developing targeted strategies provides comprehensive summary comparison approaches to explore potential. We discuss recent focusing mechanisms, efficacy, safety considerations, clinical trials, optimization at application level. Finally, we highlight support methods optimizing modulation timing regulation, selection targets, importance monitoring environment guide effective interventions.
