Antimicrobial resistance – from molecular mechanisms to molecular evolution and environmental surveillance
This topic will include a series of research and review articles covering but not limited to the following issues:
• Prevalence and clinical challenges of multidrug resistant microbes
• Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria in the Environment, their Resistance and Transfer Mechanisms
• Implant associated multidrug resistant microbes
• Interrelation between resistance, persistence and tolerance of pathogenic microorganisms against new-generation antibiotics
• Various efflux transporter pumps involved in imparting drug resistance
• Structural modification as a way of inactivating drugs
• Target mimicry, a new molecular mechanism of resistance, involves chemicals that bind and sequester drugs, preventing them from binding to their targets
• Mechanistic approaches, virtual screening, and machine learning in silico techniques to investigate biofilm and antimicrobial resistance association
• Molecular evolution of AMR
• Pathogenesis and control measures of AMR pathogen
• Novel approaches for the diagnosis of AMR infections
• Mechanistic view point of host pathogen interactions
• Search for novel drug targets for the treatment of AMR infections
• Plant derived antimicrobials to fight against MDR bacterial strains
• Bioactive compounds from marine natural sources to combat MDR bacterial infections
• Structure aided drug development for the control of AMR infection.
• Biotransformation and biomagnifications of antibiotic moieties in the ecosystem
• Dissemination of AMR in the ecosystem
• Bioremediation and surveillance of AMR in different ecological systems
• Nanotechnology based approach to combat AMR microbes as an alternative for antibiotics.
The peer review process for articles submitted to the Collections are the same as the peer review process of the journal in general. Additionally, if the guest editor(s) authors an article in their collection, they will not handle the peer review process.
