The immunology of Propionibacterium acnes and acne
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1999The majority of recent publications on the immunology of Propionibacterium acnes relate to the potential use of the bacterium as an adjuvant or its use in rodent models of human inflammatory disease. These studies have increased the understanding of the potential effects of Propionibacterium acnes on cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system.

The evolving role of Propionibacterium acnes in acne
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2001Propionibacterium acnes is a member of the resident cutaneous flora. Sebaceous follicles involved in acne are characterized by the accumulation of abnormally desquamated corneocytes and excess sebum-the microcomedo. This environment provides ideal growth conditions for P acnes. Several orders of magnitude level of P acnes are found in microcomedos.

Propionibacterium acnes Orbital Abscess
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1990Propionibacterium acnes is a ubiquitous, gram-positive, anaerobic organism. Long thought to be a harmless commensal species, it has become implicated in ocular disease. We report a P acnes orbital abscess that, to our knowledge, is the first reported case of a primary P acnes infection of the orbit in the ophthalmic literature. Report of a Case.

Acne is still a major problem, and treatment options are far from ideal. A number of studies suggest that the species Propionibacterium acnes plays an important role in the pathogenesis, and new data point towards molecular mechanisms by which the organism is able to trigger the host inflammatory response. The current knowledge on P.

Exoenzymes of Propionibacterium acnes
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1982Thirty strains of Propionibacterium acnes were grown in basal salt medium containing lecithin as a lipid substrate and in other media. The cultures were assayed for production of lipase (measured as fatty acid esterase) and other exoenzymes. Lipase was assayed spectrophotometrically; other enzymes were assayed using the API ZYM system (Analytab ...

Propionibacterium acnes Pericarditis
Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice, 2012Propionibacterium acnes typically colonizes the orophar- ynx and skin but may cause postoperative infections and opportunistic infections, especially when a foreign device is present. We report a case of pericarditis due to P. acnes complicated by tamponade.

Acne vaccines targeting Propionibacterium acnes.
Giornale italiano di dermatologia e venereologia : organo ufficiale, Societa italiana di dermatologia e sifilografia, 2010Acne vulgaris is one of the most common skin diseases and can affect a large number of individuals at some point in their lives. Though the disease is multi-factorial, the Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), a member of resident skin microflora, is implicated in acne inflammation and associated with acne lesions ...
