Ecology, more than antibiotics consumption, is the major predictor for the global distribution of aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes

Lea Pradier et al.

Summary: Antibiotic consumption alone does not fully explain the persistence of antibiotic resistance, as shown by the widespread presence of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) genes in bacteria from various ecological contexts. This study demonstrates that the prevalence of AME-carrying bacteria is influenced by ecological factors more than antibiotic use. Analysis of resistome compositions reveals the importance of exchanges between soil, wildlife, and human samples in the dissemination of AME genes. Intervention strategies should consider both reducing antibiotic use and controlling exchanges between ecosystems.

Antibiotics in surface water of East and Southeast Asian countries: A focused review on contamination status, pollution sources, potential risks, and future perspectives

Hoang Quoc Anh et al.

Summary: This review discusses the contamination status, sources, and ecological risks of antibiotics in surface water in East and Southeast Asia. Antibiotics were found to be ubiquitous in surface water, with different concentrations and distribution ranges in East Asian countries like China and South Korea compared to Southeast Asian nations. Effluent from wastewater treatment plants, aquaculture and livestock production activities, and urban sewage were identified as principal sources of antibiotics in surface water, while the ecological risks associated with antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance were highlighted. Collaborative efforts from various stakeholders are necessary to manage and reduce the burden of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance in water bodies of East and Southeast Asian countries.

Sex-related differences in disposition of sulfamethoxazole, N-acetyl- sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim in yellow catfish ( Pelteobagrus fulvidraco ) following a single oral administration

Yongtao Liu et al.

Summary: The study revealed significant sex-related differences in the disposition regularities of SMZ, N-ac-SMZ, and TMP in male and female yellow catfish. N-ac-SMZ showed a longer residue time compared to SMZ, and the findings could serve as reference data for establishing different use regimens and drug withdrawal times.

The Gut Microbiome as a Reservoir for Antimicrobial Resistance

Winston E. Anthony et al.

Summary: This review discusses the gut as a reservoir for antimicrobial resistance and pathogen colonization, with a focus on beta-lactam and plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance. It also explores the use of functional metagenomics and long-read sequencing technologies to detect and understand antimicrobial resistance genes within the gut microbiome, as well as the potential for future microbiome-directed methods for detecting and preventing infections.

Combined pollution of arsenic and Polymyxin B enhanced arsenic toxicity and enriched ARG abundance in soil and earthworm gut microbiotas

Lyu Li et al.

Summary: The combined pollution of PMB and As has significant effects on the microbial composition of soil and earthworm gut, as well as the spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The addition of PMB and As increases the bioaccumulation factor and toxicity of As in earthworm tissues. Both PMB and As stress result in an increase in the abundance of ARGs and mobile genetic elements, suggesting potential horizontal gene transfer. The inactivation of antibiotics is the main resistance mechanism against PMB and As stress, and network analysis shows antagonistic effects with multi-drug resistant ARGs.

Pollution characteristics of livestock faeces and the key driver of the spread of antibiotic resistance genes

Zhengfu Yue et al.

Summary: The study found that piglet faeces had the highest levels of antibiotics and heavy metals, with sulphonamides (SAs) explaining 36.5% of the variance in the bacterial community and significantly related to 8 genes. Structural equation modelling indicated that SAs increased the abundance of ARGs through horizontal and vertical transfer pathways.

Do initial concentration and activated sludge seasonality affect pharmaceutical biotransformation rate constants?

Tamara J. H. M. van Bergen et al.

Summary: Pharmaceuticals enter the aquatic environment through wastewater treatment plants and biotransformation plays a key role in reducing environmental risks. This study evaluated potential relationships between biotransformation rate constants of pharmaceuticals, initial concentrations of compounds, and sampling season. The findings suggest that microbial activity, rather than community composition, is responsible for biotransformation, and that the concentration of pharmaceuticals should be taken into account when predicting their fate in WWTPs.

A grass carp model with an antibiotic-disrupted intestinal microbiota

Bing-Yao Sun et al.

Summary: The study aimed to develop a reliable grass carp model with disrupted intestinal microbiota using different concentrations of antibiotics. The effects of various antibiotic regimens on microbiota composition, growth, health status, and histology in different organs were compared. The highest antibiotic concentration was found to significantly disrupt microbiota composition without substantial negative effects on growth and health in grass carp, suggesting this regimen as a suitable option for disrupting intestinal microbiota.

Bioaccumulation of therapeutic drugs by human gut bacteria

Martina Kluenemann et al.

Summary: Bacteria in the gut can modulate the availability and efficacy of therapeutic drugs by bioaccumulating them intracellularly without chemically modifying them. This process can alter drug availability and bacterial metabolism, with implications for microbiota composition, pharmacokinetics, side effects and drug responses, potentially in an individualized manner.

Twenty-year trends in antimicrobial resistance from aquaculture and fisheries in Asia

Daniel Schar et al.

Summary: The study found concerning levels of resistance to medically important antimicrobials in aquatic food animals in Asia. The resistance rate in aquaculture remained stable between 2000 and 2018, while in fisheries it decreased. Resistance hotspots were identified along major river systems and coastal waters of China and India, with eastern China and India benefiting most from future surveillance efforts.
