The microaerophily and photosensitivity of Propionibacterium acnes

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1994
E. MARTIN GRIBBON, J.G. SHOESMITH, W.J. CUNLIFFE AND K.T. HOLLAND. 1994. The effect of oxygen on the in vitro propagation of Propionibacterium acnes was investigated under defined culture conditions. This micro‐organism is the predominant bacterial resident within the pilosebaceous follicles of sebum‐rich areas of human skin.

Propionibacterium acnes related anti-inflammation and skin hydration activities of madecassoside, a pentacyclic triterpene saponin from Centella asiatica

Bioscience, biotechnology and biochemistry, 2019
Madecassoside is a major pentacyclic triterpene saponin from Centella asiatica with multiple pharmaceutical activities. In this study, we focused on its Propionibacterium acnes related anti-inflammation and skin hydration activities, both of which play ...

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 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 ...

Propionibacterium acnes Pericarditis

Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice, 2012
Propionibacterium 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.

The evolving role of Propionibacterium acnes in acne

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2001
Propionibacterium 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, 1990
Propionibacterium 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.

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.

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 ...
