Honey's antimicrobial activity stems from its unique composition, including high sugar content, low pH, and bioactive compounds like hydrogen peroxide, methylglyoxal (MGO), and phenolic compounds. Distinct honey types, such as Manuka, Sidr, and Tualang, demonstrate varying antimicrobial effects based on their botanical and geographical origins. Manuka honey, rich in MGO, is notably effective against multidrug-resistant pathogens, while Sidr and heather honeys excel in biofilm inhibition and antioxidative properties. Bioactive components, including phenolics, flavonoids, enzymes, and antimicrobial peptides, disrupt microbial membranes, inhibit metabolic pathways, and induce oxidative stress. Advanced analytical techniques like HPLC and GC-MS have identified these compounds, though gaps remain in understanding secondary metabolites and synergistic actions. This review highlights honey's potential as a sustainable antimicrobial resource, emphasizing the need for standardization, clinical validation, and interdisciplinary research. Honey represents a promising solution to AMR and offers opportunities for integration into modern medicine and healthcare strategies.","PeriodicalId":12773,"journal":{"name":"Future microbiology","volume":" ","pages":"589-610"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12153394/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144004054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is compounded by excessive antibiotic use in rUTI prophylaxis, prompting consideration of non-antibiotic prophylactic approaches. There has been increasing understanding of the pathophysiology of rUTIs, where bacteria subvert the host immune response and evade therapeutic strategies. Immuno-prophylaxis with monovalent and polyvalent bacterial preparations to elicit an immune response have come into the spotlight. Increasing understanding of how they achieve this based on innovative mechanistic in vitro and in vivo studies has highlighted the role of enhancing the helper T cell type 1 and diminishing the type 2 response. MV140 (Inmunotek SL, Madrid, Spain) is a quadrivalent bacterial preparation which has contemporary evidence to show good efficacy in improving rUTI clinical parameters, which is acceptable to patients, associated with improvements in quality of life, as well as reduced healthcare resource usage and costs. Importantly, it also appears to be safe and is associated with improved rationalization of antibiotic use. Whilst more rigorous studies are awaited, it shows promise in tackling heterogenous clinical entity.","PeriodicalId":12773,"journal":{"name":"Future microbiology","volume":" ","pages":"513-521"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12153389/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143963177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Probiotics are claimed to enhance gut health, modulate immune responses, improve digestion, synthesize beneficial compounds for the host, and even impact mental health through the gut-brain axis. However, traditional in vitro methods for identifying probiotics have limitations, such as low reproducibility in phenotypic screening, limited capacity to discover new strains, restricted evaluation of safety, and inefficiencies in fully understanding the biological properties responsible for health-promoting effects. Advancements in genomic analysis technology have provided a cost-effective approach to further explore probiotic strains and enhance understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving their beneficial effects in hosts. Here, we describe a comprehensive workflow for probiogenomic analysis aimed at establishing a gold-standard pipeline for screening probiotic potential based on genome sequencing. This pipeline encompasses steps from acquiring genomes to screening for safety-related features, genomic plasticity, and probiotic markers through whole-genome sequencing. In addition, this study outlines the respective methodological approaches and provides the most comprehensive database documented to date, comprising 243 genes potentially associated with probiotic function.","PeriodicalId":12773,"journal":{"name":"Future microbiology","volume":" ","pages":"611-622"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12153390/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143983931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In search of effective treatment options, antimicrobial peptides are being explored as a promising strategy.Methods: Leveraging bioinformatics, we dissected structural and sequence profiles of piscidin, an antimicrobial peptide. We investigated whether long-term piscidin exposure induces resistance in Hp strains by measuring their minimum inhibitory concentration. The Oxford cup test was applied to measure inhibition zones of piscidin against Hp strains. Following piscidin treatment, we monitored morphological alterations in Hp strains using scanning electron microscopy, and changes in urease activity, expressions of virulence factors CagA and UreB, and adenosine triphosphate levels. Cytotoxicity of piscidin was evaluated in AGS and 293T cells.Results: Piscidin inhibited proliferation of Hp strains, with a low propensity of inducing resistance. Delving into underlying mechanisms, we observed piscidin could alter morphology of Hp strains, suppress urease activity, and downregulate expressions of virulence factors CagA and UreB, while also reducing intracellular ATP levels. Piscidin had good security.Conclusion: Piscidin is a potent antibacterial agent against Hp with low resistance risk, making it a safe and effective treatment candidate.","PeriodicalId":12773,"journal":{"name":"Future microbiology","volume":" ","pages":"533-542"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144016811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We require innovative approaches to enhance the discovery of effective antimicrobials capable of combating bacteria resistant to multiple or all antibiotics. These methods should either directly eliminate resistant bacteria or indirectly influence their viability by inhibiting their virulence or reducing their resistance to antibiotics. One interesting approach is to analyze ancient remedies used to treat bacterial infections, formulate them, and test them against modern microbes. This field has recently been named \"ancientbiotics.\" This approach allows us to leverage centuries of empirical knowledge accumulated, from traditional medicines across various ancient cultures worldwide. The strategy has already yielded promising formulations to combat the ESKAPE group of nosocomial pathogens. Additionally, molecular de-extinction, which involves genome analysis of extinct species to search for useful antimicrobials, such as peptides, offers another avenue.

Antibiofilm activity was evaluated by measuring bacterial viability and biomass reduction in preformed biofilms. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe membrane effects. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to analyze the binding affinity of ibuprofen to the active sites of β-lactamases (CTX-M-15, KPC-2, OXA-23).Results: NaI exhibited bactericidal activity at concentrations of 25-75 mm, with Acinetobacter baumannii being the most susceptible. NaCl (≥0.5 M) enhanced bactericidal efficacy and lowered MBCs. Time-kill assays indicated rapid bacterial eradication within 2 hours, with NaIHS achieving similar results at lower concentrations. SEM confirmed membrane disruption. Both formulations reduced bacterial viability in biofilms, with NaIHS showing greater efficiency. In silico studies suggest ibuprofen may inhibit β-lactamases, with enhanced interactions in saline environments.Conclusion: Sodium ibuprofenate, particularly in its hypertonic form, demonstrates strong antibacterial, antibiofilm, and potential β-lactamase inhibitory activity, making it a promising candidate for treating MDR-GNB infections.","PeriodicalId":12773,"journal":{"name":"Future microbiology","volume":" ","pages":"395-407"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11980465/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143585523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
