Endocarditis Due to Propionibacterium acnes
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1980A case of Propionibacterium acnes endocarditis documented by blood culture and culture of the valve is presented. A brief review of the literature is summarized.

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.

Propionibacterium acnes resistance to antibiotics in acne patients
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1983The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Propionibacterium acnes in seventy-five acne patients receiving long-term antibiotic therapy demonstrated the emergence of resistant strains. The mean MIC in thirty-three patients receiving long-term tetracycline was four to five times higher than that found in control groups of acne patients not receiving ...

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.

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.

Treatment of Propionibacterium acnes endophthalmitis
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2001Propionibacterium acnes is a well-known cause of delayed endophthalmitis following cataract surgery. A white intracapsular plaque, keratic precipitates, and hypopyon may be present. Although there is no consensus on the treatment approach, recent studies have reviewed the outcomes of relatively large numbers of patients.

Ugeskrift for laeger, 2008
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.

Biofilms in Skin Infections: Propionibacterium acnes and Acne Vulgaris
Infectious Disorders - Drug Targets, 2008It is generally accepted that many human infections are biofilm-related and that sessile (biofilm-grown) cells are highly resistant against antimicrobial agents. Propionibacterium acnes plays a role in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris, a common disorder of the pilosebaceous follicles and it has been suggested that P.
