Abstract
Multidrug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-MTB) infections have created a critical health problem globally. The appalling rise in drug resistance to all the current therapeutics has triggered the need for identifying new antimycobacterial agents effective against multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Structurally unique chemical entities with new mode of action will be required to combat this pressing issue. This review gives an overview of the structures and outlines on various aspects of in vitro pharmacological activities of new antimycobacterial agents, mechanism of action and brief structure activity relationships in the perspective of drug discovery and development. This review also summarizes on recent reports of new antimycobacterial agents.
