Global burden of bacterial antimicrobial resistance in 2019: a systematic analysis

Christopher J. L. Murray et al.

Summary: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to global human health, and this study provides the most comprehensive estimates of AMR burden to date. By estimating deaths and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) associated with bacterial AMR in 204 countries and territories in 2019, the study highlights the impact of resistance and the leading pathogen-drug combinations contributing to it.

Bridging the Antimicrobial Activity of Two Lactoferricin Derivatives in E. coli and Lipid-Only Membranes

Lisa Marx et al.

Summary: The study showed that LF11-215 and LF11-324 can effectively target inner bacterial components and impact bacterial membranes. Both peptides exhibited comparable membrane binding in mimics containing different phospholipids, while also demonstrating concentration-dependent dye leakage activity.
