Eric Juan, a leading researcher at the University of California at San Francisco, said today that his team has developed an acne vaccine. According to the publication It, researchers in the process of developing faced serious problems, because scientists still could not accurately determine the causes of acne. In the US alone, about 50 of millions of people suffer from acne.

Eric Juan:
“In the cause of acne, the leading role belongs to bacteria that are located in the sebaceous glands. For a long time we could not develop a vaccine against these bacteria, since in some way they are good for us and do not harm our skin. But we have developed antibodies to the toxic protein these bacteria secrete on the skin, to the protein that is associated with both inflammation and acne on the skin - acne. "

 

Now on the market there are antimicrobial drugs that can temporarily solve the problem of acne, but with prolonged use of these drugs lead to the appearance on the skin of pharmaco-resistant strains of bacteria. Also, normal microflora suffers from antimicrobial drugs. That is why scientists consider the acne vaccine to be the most effective way to defeat a rash.

The drug is still undergoing clinical trials, it will take about 2 years, but the previous phase of research in the laboratory went well, doctors believe that this way to overcome acne, which affects both adolescents and adults, is the most optimal.
