Acne is an annoying problem. Acne is a common problem among teenagers and young adults, who can make people insecure and sometimes become stressful. But do not worry, soon there will be no vaccine acne. Now scientists are making breakthroughs in the hunt for treatments for acne. A promising vaccine that can stop the cause of. The main acne will at least be able to be marketed generally 5 years.
Breakthrough vaccine approach against the backdrop of acne treatments available today, most of which rely on antibiotics to 'bomb' causing bacteria freckles on the face.
The drugs can disrupt the natural balance of skin and leave some risk of scarring. Scientists at the University of California at San Diego and then work with the world's largest vaccine company Sanofi Pasteur to be able to make vaccines acne.
According to scientists, rather than focusing on how to eliminate the main causes of acne bacteria, a vaccine which will be named P-acnes aims to neutralize the protein, the source of the problem which is produced by bacteria and is the key to the formation of acne.
Acne happens when sebaceous glands produce sebum (oil or natural skin moisturizer) so much that clog pores. Protein will then begin to kill the skin cells, causing the body trying to fight back by causing inflammation and skin area was flooded with white blood cells. The result, there arises a painful acne.
Scientists have done tests on the ear skin of mice, producing antibodies in protein and 'off'. Rats that had been given doses of bacteria and then treated with an antibody that makes inflammation less. The study also found that the immune system of experimental animals can be stimulated to produce its own antibodies.
"This vaccine may be available within 5 to 10 years," explains Dr. Harald Gollnick, of the Global Alliance to Improve Outcomes in Acne, University of California.
More than 80 percent of teenagers suffer from acne dams global market for acne medication is estimated at 1.87 billion pounds (about Rp 26.7 trillion) per year.
"Acne affects so many teenagers at a very difficult stage in life. The vaccine, potentially targeting inflammation may prove very helpful," said Dr. Susannah Baron, consultant dermatologist from BMI Hospital in Canterbury.
