Journal ArticleDOI
Inducible erythromycin resistance in staphlyococci is encoded by a member of the ATP‐binding transport super‐gene family
TL;DR: The deduced sequence of the 488‐amino‐acid protein (MsrA) revealed the presence of two ATP‐binding motifs homologous to those of a family of transport‐related proteins from Gram‐negative bacteria and eukaryotic cells, including the P‐glycoprotein responsible for multidrug resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic-resistant acne: lessons from Europe.
J I Ross,A M Snelling,Ellen Carnegie,P. Coates,W.J. Cunliffe,Vincenzo Bettoli,G Tosti,A Katsambas,J I Galvan Peréz Del Pulgar,O Rollman,L Török,E.A. Eady,J.H. Cove +12 more
TL;DR: This data indicates that despite numerous reports of skin colonization by antibiotic‐resistant propionibacteria among acne patients, accurate prevalence data are available only for the U.K.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topical aminolaevulinic acid‐photodynamic therapy for the treatment of acne vulgaris: a study of clinical efficacy and mechanism of action
TL;DR: A large number of 16‐year‐olds with acne are seeking help from a clinician, and fears over the safety and tolerance of oral isotretinoin treatments create a demand for novel treatment modalities in acne.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of antibiotic-resistant propionibacteria on the skin of acne patients: 10-year surveillance data and snapshot distribution study.
TL;DR: Cutaneous propionibacteria are implicated in acne pathogenesis, although their exact role in the genesis of inflammation is still poorly understood and formal prevalence and distribution data are lacking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comedogenesis: some new aetiological, clinical and therapeutic strategies.
TL;DR: The newer retinoids and new formulations of all‐trans‐retinoic acid show a better benefit/risk ratio and evidence‐based studies are required to allow adequate comparisons.
