Abstract
The human skin hosts an estimated 1000 bacterial species that are essential for maintaining skin health. Extensive clinical and preclinical studies have established the significant role of the skin microbiome in dermatological disorders such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, diabetic foot ulcers, hidradenitis suppurativa and skin cancers. In these conditions, the skin microbiome is not only altered but, in some cases, implicated in disease pathophysiology. Microbiome-based therapies (MBTs) represent an emerging category of live biotherapeutic products with tremendous potential as a novel intervention platform for skin diseases. Beyond using established wild-type strains native to the skin, these therapies can be enhanced to express targeted therapeutic molecules, offering more tailored treatment approaches. This review explores the role of the skin microbiome in various common skin disorders, with a particular focus on the development and therapeutic potential of MBTs for treating these conditions.
期刊介绍:
Experimental Dermatology provides a vehicle for the rapid publication of innovative and definitive reports, letters to the editor and review articles covering all aspects of experimental dermatology. Preference is given to papers of immediate importance to other investigators, either by virtue of their new methodology, experimental data or new ideas. The essential criteria for publication are clarity, experimental soundness and novelty. Letters to the editor related to published reports may also be accepted, provided that they are short and scientifically relevant to the reports mentioned, in order to provide a continuing forum for discussion. Review articles represent a state-of-the-art overview and are invited by the editors.
