TL;DR: The acquisition of antimicrobial resistance genes by ESKAPE pathogens has reduced the treatment options for serious infections, increased the burden of disease, and increased death rates due to treatment failure and requires a coordinated global response for antim antibiotic resistance surveillance.

Abstract: Antimicrobial-resistant ESKAPE ( Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter species) pathogens represent a global threat to human health. The acquisition of antimicrobial resistance genes by ESKAPE pathogens has reduced the treatment options for serious infections, increased the burden of disease, and increased death rates due to treatment failure and requires a coordinated global response for antimicrobial resistance surveillance. This looming health threat has restimulated interest in the development of new antimicrobial therapies, has demanded the need for better patient care, and has facilitated heightened governance over stewardship practices.

Fabian Peter Hammerle,Johannes Fiala,Anja Höck,Lesley R. Huymann,Pamela Vrabl,Yurii Husiev,Sylvestre Bonnet,Ursula Peintner,Bianka Siewert +8 more
TL;DR: Targeted isolation of the major pigments from C. sanguineus led to the identification of two new potent photoantimicrobials, and dermocybin was not (photo)cytotoxic against the three tested cell lines, adding an additional level of selectivity.
