Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health concern, posing a significant challenge to the effective treatment of infectious diseases. Understanding the mechanisms underlying antibiotic resistance in microbial pathogens is crucial for the development of strategies to combat this problem. This paper aims to provide an overview of the various resistance mechanisms employed by microorganisms and their impact on the effectiveness of antibiotic therapies. Through a comprehensive analysis of the current literature, we highlight key genetic and biochemical processes that contribute to antibiotic resistance and discuss the implications for clinical practice and public health. By gaining a deeper understanding of these mechanisms, researchers and healthcare professionals can better anticipate and address the evolving threat of antibiotic resistance.
