This study investigates the role of Cutibacterium acnes extracellular vesicles in inflammatory skin disorders, finding distinct proteomic profiles and functional effects across phylotypes.

This study identifies SPRR1 and SPRR2 as antimicrobial proteins produced by sebocytes that defend the skin by disrupting bacterial membranes, showing increased susceptibility to infections in their absence.

The paper identifies Far1 as a dual topology membrane protein capable of localizing to both peroxisomes and lipid droplets, with a C-terminal hydrophobic domain mediating lipid droplet targeting.
