This study found that the RpoN/RpoS pathway regulates gene expression in Borrelia burgdorferi, influencing its ability to persist in mammals and adapt to different hosts.

This study found that the novel bacteriophage Halo KS-7 shows strong antibacterial activity against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and significantly promotes wound healing in mice, making it a promising biocontrol agent for managing multidrug-resistant infections.

This review highlights that bacteriophage therapy shows promise for acne treatment by specifically targeting Cutibacterium acnes, but larger clinical trials and improved regulatory frameworks are needed for further development.

This study demonstrated that human hair shafts can inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria but have no effect on Gram-negative bacterial growth, offering insights into hair and scalp health.

This review identifies that anaerobic bacteria from the gut and oral microbiota, not typical skin pathogens, are frequently present in hidradenitis suppurativa lesions, suggesting a role in inflammation and potential treatment targets.

This document reviews various types of microbes, their roles in fermentation and diseases, and strategies for protection against microbial infections, but presents no new research findings.

This study observed that S.epidermidis was more prevalent in normal skin, whereas P.acne was more common in acne lesions among Egyptian patients; antibiotic treatments may not be the most effective for acne, highlighting alternative therapies like retinoids or lasers.

This source reports that Malassezia restricta appears more abundantly in fecal samples and may be associated with intestinal diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, but is also found in healthy contexts; future research could inform targeted therapies.

This study observed significant differences in the skin microbiome between hidradenitis suppurativa patients and healthy individuals, notably with decreased β-diversity and a distinct abundance of certain bacteria in affected skin.

This study found that administering the gut bacterium Thauera sp. strain GDN1 to mice significantly reduced their serum androgen levels, indicating gut bacteria may influence androgen metabolism.

This study found that oral administration of Thauera sp. strain GDN1 reduced serum androgen levels in male mice by about 50%, suggesting its potential as a probiotic treatment for hyperandrogenism.

This study found that in mice, Bacillus anthracis infections destroy hair follicles by progressing inward from the surface and clear when inflammatory cells disperse the bacteria after 3-4 days.

This study reviewed 55 studies to assess the bacterial microbiome in hair follicles across different inflammatory skin and hair conditions, reporting shifts in the abundance of Cutibacterium and Staphylococcus among various diseases, though the causal significance remains unclear.

This study found that endophytic bacteria isolated from Leea indica leaves showed high antioxidant activity, suggesting they could be a novel source of natural antioxidants.

In a DNFB-induced mouse model of atopic dermatitis, this study found that both topical and oral formulations of the probiotic Bifidobacterium animalis J12 improved AD symptoms through distinct mechanisms, with topical applications reducing local inflammation and oral administration enhancing gut microbiota and reducing systemic inflammation.

This study using a genetic mouse model found that S. aureus-driven dysbiosis sustains inflammatory skin side effects from EGFR inhibitors, suggesting prophylactic antibiotic treatment may reduce rash severity without fixing barrier defects.

This study reports a case of bovine besnoitiosis in Germany characterized by specific skin lesions, with diagnosis confirmed through histopathology, serology, and PCR as Besnoitia besnoiti.

This study found that four bacterial isolates from a microbiology laboratory collection demonstrated resistance to selenate, with molecular analysis showing they closely resemble different strains of Bacillus megaterium.

This study found that short-chain fatty acids produced by the skin microbe Propionibacterium acnes may drive inflammatory gene expression in sebocytes, potentially contributing to acne.

This study found that red galangal rhizome simplicia extract demonstrated the strongest antibacterial effect against Propionibacterium acnes among tested extracts, achieving a 31.5 mm inhibitory zone at a 20% concentration.

This study found that Botryococcus terribilis ethanol extract significantly reduced inflammation markers in LPS-stimulated RAW264 cells, potentially via Axl inhibition and alteration of immune-related gene expression.

This study observed that Indian women with PCOS had distinct gut microbiome profiles, linking specific bacterial genera to metabolic and hormonal predictors of the condition.

Certain bacteria may influence alopecia areata risk, but skin bacteria don't mediate gut-skin effects.

This study found that bacterial biofilms were present in only two out of ten acute hidradenitis suppurativa lesions examined, suggesting a limited primary role for biofilms in early-stage lesions.

This study identified a novel Acinetobacter species, strain A1-4-2, with exceptional biodegradation abilities and low antibiotic resistance, found in diverse environments and potentially useful for ecological restoration by degrading organic pollutants.

This study found that treatment with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens UCMB5113 significantly increased root hair growth in half of the tested Arabidopsis thaliana accessions.

In this study, predominant scalp bacteria, such as Cutibacterium acnes and Pseudomonas lini, were found to influence the expression of genes related to scalp and hair health in keratinocytes, potentially affecting scalp repair and hair growth.

This review found that in various dermatological diseases, skin microbiome diversity decreases, with an increased presence of pro-inflammatory strains, and suggests potential of prebiotic treatments as safer alternatives to antibiotics, though further research is needed to confirm efficacy.

This study demonstrated that a strain of lactic acid bacteria from kimchi, identified as Pediococcus inopinatus, showed antibacterial activity against certain oral pathogens and effectively bleached stained artificial teeth and inhibited biofilm formation, offering potential for addressing teeth discoloration and halitosis.
