Optimizing the production and efficacy of antimicrobial bioactive compounds from in combating multi-drug-resistant pathogens.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
BACKGROUND: The rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens has intensified the search for novel antimicrobial agents. This study aimed to isolate from local soil samples and evaluate its antimicrobial properties, along with optimizing the production of ...

Antimicrobial Activity of Tea and Agarwood Leaf Extracts Against Multidrug-Resistant Microbes.

BioMed research international
Emerging multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains are the main challenges to the progression of new drug discovery. To diminish infectious disease-causing pathogens, new antibiotics are required while the drying pipeline of potent antibiotics is adding to t...

Antimicrobial Peptides as Broad-Spectrum Therapeutics: Computational Analysis to Identify Universal Physical-Chemical Features Responsible for Multitarget Activity.

The journal of physical chemistry letters
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) hold significant potential as broad-spectrum therapeutics due to their ability to target a variety of different pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. However, the rational design of these peptides requires t...

An antimicrobial drug recommender system using MALDI-TOF MS and dual-branch neural networks.

eLife
Timely and effective use of antimicrobial drugs can improve patient outcomes, as well as help safeguard against resistance development. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is currently routinely...

Dose Individualisation of Antimicrobials from a Pharmacometric Standpoint: The Current Landscape.

Drugs
Successful antimicrobial therapy depends on achieving optimal drug concentrations within individual patients. Inter-patient variability in pharmacokinetics (PK) and differences in pathogen susceptibility (reflected in the minimum inhibitory concentra...

MAPRS: An intelligent approach for post-prescription review based on multi-label learning.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to public health worldwide. It is a promising way to improve appropriate prescription by the review and stewardship of antimicrobials, and Post-Prescription Review (PPR) is currently the main tool used...

AMP-RNNpro: a two-stage approach for identification of antimicrobials using probabilistic features.

Scientific reports
Antimicrobials are molecules that prevent the formation of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. The necessity to detect antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) using machine learning and deep learning arises from the need for efficie...

Antimicrobial Activity Classification of Imidazolium Derivatives Predicted by Artificial Neural Networks.

Pharmaceutical research
PURPOSE: This study assesses the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) neural network, complemented by other Machine Learning techniques (CART, PCA), in predicting the antimicrobial activity of 140 newly designed imidazolium chlorides against Klebsiella pneumo...

Explainable and Interpretable Machine Learning for Antimicrobial Stewardship: Opportunities and Challenges.

Clinical therapeutics
There is growing interest in exploiting the advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) for improving and monitoring antimicrobial prescriptions in line with antimicrobial stewardship principles. Against this background, the concept...

Novel antimicrobial peptides against Cutibacterium acnes designed by deep learning.

Scientific reports
The increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance in Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes) requires the search for alternative therapeutic strategies. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) offer a promising avenue for the development of new treatments targeting C....
