AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current anti-inflammatory treatments for skin and mucous membrane conditions often cause side effects and contribute to antibiotic resistance, necessitating the development of novel products with anti-inflammatory and potentially antibacterial activity without significant side effects.

Method used

Utilization of selected Cutibacterium acnes strains, their cell wall fragments, or postbiotics, which promote fibroblast proliferation and inhibit pathogenic bacteria and fungi, modulating the immune system and providing immunomodulatory effects.

Benefits of technology

The strains and their derivatives effectively treat skin and mucous membrane infections, reduce inflammation, and normalize the commensal microbiome, while avoiding side effects and antibiotic resistance.
