Treatment of Propionibacterium acnes endophthalmitis

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2001
Propionibacterium 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.

Propionibacterium acnes infection complicating craniotomy

Journal of Hospital Infection, 1980
There is sufficient data in the literature to confirm that both aerobic and anaerobic diphtheroids are potential pathogens (Kaplan & Weinstein, 1969 ; Johnson & Kaye, 1970; French, Ziter, Spruance & Smith, 1974). Anaerobic diphtheroids have been incriminated as a cause of shunt infections (Fokes, 1970; Nastasi, Filizzolo, Bavastrelli et al, 1972 ...

Propionibacterium acnes resistance to antibiotics in acne patients

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1983
The 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 ...

Acne vaccines targeting Propionibacterium acnes.

Giornale italiano di dermatologia e venereologia : organo ufficiale, Societa italiana di dermatologia e sifilografia, 2010
Acne 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 ...

The immunology of Propionibacterium acnes and acne

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1999
The 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 adenitis].

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 2005
Propionibacterium acnes is a gram-positive pleomorphic rod-shaped anaerobic saprophyte of the skin, mouth and upper respiratory tract. Although associated with acne vulgaris, it is otherwise reported as a human pathogen only rarely, in various infections, notably cutaneous and osteoarticular, and in endocarditis.

Exoenzymes of Propionibacterium acnes

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1982
Thirty 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 ...
