Emerging infectious diseases, including parasitic and bacterial infections, are often linked to human progress and increasing antimicrobial resistance. Understanding pathogen biology is crucial for addressing these global health challenges.

Area of Science:

  • Microbiology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Public Health

Background:

  • 29 new and reemerging pathogenic microbes identified between 1973-1995.
  • Emerging infectious diseases discussions often overlook pathogen biology, focusing instead on host-parasite interactions.
  • Many emerging diseases are consequences of 'diseases of human progress', such as Legionella pneumophila from water aerosolization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize experiences with emerging parasitic diseases.
  • To highlight challenges posed by antimicrobial resistance in bacterial pathogens.
  • To underscore the importance of pathogen biology in understanding emerging infectious diseases.

Main Methods:

  • Review of emerging parasitic diseases: primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, respiratory cryptosporidiosis, and diplogonoporiasis.

  • Analysis of bacterial resistance issues: multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) caused by Mycobacterium bovis.
  • Examination of macrolide-resistance mechanisms in Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes.

    • Main Results:

    • Emerging parasitic diseases present unique clinical and biological challenges.
    • Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB) and macrolide resistance in S. pneumoniae and S. pyogenes complicate treatment.
    • Pathogen biology and human environmental interactions are key factors in disease emergence.

    Conclusions:

    • Emerging infectious diseases require a comprehensive understanding of both pathogen biology and societal factors.
    • Antimicrobial resistance is a growing threat, necessitating novel treatment strategies.
    • Addressing emerging diseases involves managing 'diseases of human progress' and understanding host-pathogen dynamics.
