Some antibiotics that are frequently employed are β-lactams. In light of the hydrolytic process of β-lactamase, found in Gram-negative bacteria, inhibitors of β-lactamase (BLIs) have been produced. Examples of first-generation β-lactamase inhibitors include sulbactam, clavulanic acid, and tazobactam. Many kinds of bacteria immune to inhibitors have appeared, and none cover all the β-lactamase classes. Various methods have been utilized to develop second-generation β-lactamase inhibitors possessing new structures and facilitate the formation of diazabicyclooctane (DBO), cyclic boronate, metallo-, and dual-nature β-lactamase inhibitors. This review describes numerous promising second-generation β-lactamase inhibitors, including vaborbactam, avibactam, and cyclic boronate serine-β-lactamase inhibitors. Furthermore, it covers developments and methods for synthesizing MβL (metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors), which are clinically effective, as well as the various dual-nature-based inhibitors of β-lactamases that have been developed. Several combinations are still only used in preclinical or clinical research, although only a few are currently used in clinics. This review comprises materials on the research progress of BLIs over the last five years. It highlights the ongoing need to produce new and unique BLIs to counter the appearance of multidrug-resistant bacteria. At present, second-generation BLIs represent an efficient and successful strategy. |
