Acne affects many people at some point and is a 1.5 billion dollar a year industry.

 

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Acne affects many of us at some point in our lives, yet doctors haven't made a lot of progress in creating new ways to treat it. Some people may have chronic acne problems, some people never do. Now UCLA researchers are optimistic their new discovery about who gets acne could lead to an effective anti-acne tool.

 

Acne is more than just a teenage thing. For some people it never goes away. It affects self esteem and can cause physical as well as emotional scarring. For many this scarring lasts a lifetime.

UCLA researchers wanted to find out why some people get pimples and others don't. They studied 50 patients and for the first time examined acne at the molecular level.

"We looked down inside pores. We sequenced every bit of DNA from those microbes, and so we compared acne patients and healthy patients," said Dr. Noah Craft, Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.

Principal investigator Dr. Craft says that in the oily depths of pores of people with severe acne, they made a unique discovery: two strains of bacteria called Propionibacterium or P. acnes.

"And what we found were bad strains of bacteria in the acne patients.

 

These bad strains of bacteria are thought to be responsible for the inflammation and scarring.
