Heat‐killed Propionibacterium acnes is capable of causing inflammatory responses in skin


The etiology of skin condition could be a complicated method, and skin condition is one in all the foremost common skin disorders touching immeasurable folks. The pathologic process of skin condition is closely related to the microorganism, Propionibacterium acnes that was antecedently called eubacterium parvum.

Each viable and non‐viable P. acnes/C. parvum are shown to induce Associate in Nursing immunostimulatory result in vivo, suggesting that even dead bacterium still activate Associate in Nursing inflammatory response. skin condition treatments with lasers or devices, induce a germicidal result through heat generation which can not address the immunogenic activity of P. skin conditions and also the ensuing acne inflammation.


Therefore, we tend to sought-after to see whether or not killed P. skin conditions is capable of causing Associate in Nursing inflammatory response and thus can be a contributory think about acne. Direct heat treatment of P. acnes cultures with temperatures starting from 50°C to 80°C reduced P. acnes viability. each viable and heat‐killed P. acnes activated the p38 MAP enzyme and its downstream substrate Hsp27.

Stimulating keratinocytes with traditional and heat‐inactivated P. acnes resulted in Associate in Nursing induction of pro-inflammatory gas and IL‐8 production. therefore killed P. skin conditions is capable of causing inflammation in skin suggesting that therapies that have each germicidal and anti‐inflammatory effects could end in a simpler treatment of patients with acne than treatments that square measure germicidal alone.
