Detecting some skin bacteria against ulcers

Professor Richard Gallo and colleagues at the San Diego Institute of Medicine, University of California (USA) have studied the skin surface detection of people who often have some 'beneficial' bacteria to help prevent related diseases. to ulcers.

So the fact that we make the skin surface too clean means removing some good bacteria, so it won't be healthy.

Research has found that after skin damage, a common staph on the skin surface that prevents the ulcer process of the skin will perform immune function to the ulcer reaction process in the skin. micro wide, thereby helping to heal wounds.

After conducting experiments on mice and human cells, the scientists found that this "beneficial" bacteria could produce a molecule called 'lipoteichoic acid-LTA,' which would impact on keratinocyte epidermal cells to prevent increased levels of ulcers.

Professor Richard Gallo said that with this research, scientists have discovered an unknown element in the wound healing mechanism, and can help us find a new way to treat it. Diseases related to dermatitis.

On the surface and inside of the human body there are many microorganisms, including some microorganisms that have important effects on human health, can help prevent harmful bacteria from entering. body, increases immunity.

Professor Richard Gallo, who led the study, said it is important to ensure that the bacterial balance on the skin surface is important, while the use of antibiotics on some parts or the whole body will do the job. change this balance and can lead to negative consequences.
