Many antibiotics appear to have as their mechanism of action the capacity to inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis. This does NOT appear to be a mechanism of A. Aminoglycosides B. Penicillins C. Bacitracin D. Cephalosporins E. Vancomycin
Considering the urgency of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, detection of new mutant strains and potential re-emergence of novel coronaviruses, repurposing of drugs such as ivermectin could be worthy of attention. This review article aims to discuss the probable mechanisms of action of ivermectin again...

Inhibition of Ceramide Synthesis in Plants by Phytotoxins Inhibition of ceramide synthase has recently been identified (Abbas et al., 1993c, d; Abbas and Shier, 1997; Abbas et al., 1998c; Vesonder et al., 1992) as the mechanism of action of a small group of phytotoxins isolated from ...
1F). Out of the positive assays, 108 targeted ARGs and 28 MGEs. Among the detected ARGs, 63 conferred resistance to aminoglycosides, MLSBs or tetracyclines and the most common resistance mechanism was antibiotic deactivation (Supplementary Fig. S2A,B). Among MGEs, most of the positive assays...
In the future, difficult surgical procedures, transplants, and other immunosuppressive therapies may become very risky. Resistance is mainly due to an excessive usage of antibiotics, in both humans and animals, and to cross-transmission of resistant bacteria. Action is urgently needed. Therefore, a...
