Beschreibung:
Human skin is a large, heterogeneous organ that protects the body from pathogens while sustaining microorganisms that influence human health and disease. Our analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences obtained from 20 distinct skin sites of healthy humans revealed that physiologically comparable sites harbor similar bacterial communities. The complexity and stability of the microbial community are dependent on the specific characteristics of the skin site. This topographical and temporal survey provides a baseline for studies that examine the role of bacterial communities in disease states and the microbial interdependencies required to maintain healthy skin.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2805064/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2805064/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Grice, Elizabeth A -- Kong, Heidi H -- Conlan, Sean -- Deming, Clayton B -- Davis, Joie -- Young, Alice C -- NISC Comparative Sequencing Program -- Bouffard, Gerard G -- Blakesley, Robert W -- Murray, Patrick R -- Green, Eric D -- Turner, Maria L -- Segre, Julia A -- Z01 HG000180-08/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- ZIA BC010938-02/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- ZIA HG000180-09/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 29;324(5931):1190-2. doi: 10.1126/science.1171700.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Genetics and Molecular Biology Branch, National Human Genome Research Institute, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19478181" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
