Changes in skin microbiota are associated with disease. (A) Relative abundance of bacteria (16S rRNA) in 12 children with AD flares as compared with 11 healthy controls (Kong et al. 2012). (B) Relative abundance of bacteria (16S rRNA) in six patients with psoriasis, in the lesional area as compared with unaffected skin as a control (Gao et al. 2008). (C) Relative abundance of P. acnes strains in 49 acne patients and 52 healthy individuals (Fitz-Gibbon et al. 2013). (D) Relative abundance of fungi (26S rRNA) in three healthy scalps and four dandruff-afflicted scalps (Park et al. 2012).
