Skin aging involves biomechanical changes like decreased elasticity, increased wrinkle formation, and altered barrier function. The skin microbiome significantly impacts this process. Here, we investigated the effects of Cutibacterium acnes abundance increase in other microorganisms on properties 60 healthy Koreans from Seoul, divided into younger (20–29 years) older (60–75 groups. Metagenomic sequencing assessments showed that group exhibited C. dominance microbial diversity, correlating...

, a traditional herb, is widely recognized for its pharmacologically active components, such as asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid. These components render it highly sought-after ingredient in various industries, including cosmetics pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to enhance the production activity of these pharmacological constituents

Cutibacterium acnes is a Gram-positive bacterium commonly found on human skin, particularly in sebaceous areas. While it typically considered commensal, specific strain types based single locus sequence typing (SLST) have been associated with pathogenic conditions or healthy skin. Recently, SLST D1 strains, part of phylotype IA1, received attention for their potential benefits related to skin health. However, genetic characteristics remain underexplored. Therefore, the whole genome C. CN6,...
