Commensal microbiota modulate gene expression in the skin
30 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The skin harbors complex communities of resident microorganisms, yet little is known of their physiological roles and the molecular mechanisms that mediate cutaneous host-microbe interactions. Here, we profiled skin transcriptomes of mice reared in the presence and absence of microbiota to elucidate the range of pathways and functions modulated in the skin by the microbiota. RESULTS: A total of 2820...
