Cutibacterium acnes-derived short-chain fatty acids drive lipogenesis and induce holocrine secretion in human sebocytes

Sebum lipids are one of the key ecological determinants of skin microbiome composition, where sebaceous sites are enriched with sebum utilising microbes such as Cutibacterium acnes. While sebaceous gland (SG) activation and sebogenesis are classically viewed as host-regulated processes, the association of C. acnes expa...
