Abstract

Background: The prevalence of drug-resistant organisms has steadily increased over the past few decades worldwide. Especially in tuberculosis (TB) disease, the problems of co-morbidity and the rapid emergence of multidrug resistance have necessitated the development of multitarget-based therapeutic regimens. Several multitargeting compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) have been studied through novel in silico tools but these have rendered reduced efficacy in clinical trials. The authors have focussed on many exotic targets belonging to crucial Mtb survival pathways whose molecular structures and functions are underexplored. Likewise, insights into the hidden possibilities of promiscuous compounds from natural products or repurposed drugs to inhibit other cellular proteins apart from their validated targets are also depicted in this review. In addition to the existing line of drugs currently recommended for multidrug-resistant TB, newer host-directed therapies could also be fruitful. Furthermore, several challenges, including safety/efficacy ratios of multitarget compounds highlighted here, can also be circumnavigated by researchers to design “smart drugs” for improved tuberculosis therapeutics.

Conclusion: A holistic approach towards alleviating the existing drawbacks of drug discovery in drug-resistant TB has been outlined. Finally, considering the current needs, the authors have put forward an overall summary of possible trends in multitargeting that are significant for futuristic therapeutic solutions.

Keywords: Tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, multidrug resistance, multitargeting, antitubercular agents, pharma-cology.
