Anti-microbial Resistance In Atopic Dermatitis: Need for an Urgent Rethink

Atopic dermatitis (AD) results from a complex interplay of host genetic and environmental factors. There is a long established association between AD and Staphylococcus aureus. In healthy individuals this organism has a dichotomous relationship with the host, being a frequent component of the human microbiome, carried asymptomatically, and on occasion, an opportunistic pathogen capable of causing or influencing a broad ranging disease. In AD, high carriage rates of S. aureus on affected skin is commonly observed, with recent meta-analysis evidence demonstrating colonisation in approximately 70% of affected individuals 1.
