1 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Acne is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that involves Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes), which is classified into six main phylotypes (IA1, IA2, IB, IC, II and III). Acne development is associated with loss of C. acnes phylotype diversity, characterised by overgrowth of phylotype IA1 relative to other phylotypes. It was also shown that purified extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by C. acnes can...
