Abstract of corresponding document: WO0181581
Compositions and methods for the therapy and diagnosis of acne vulgaris and other related conditions are disclosed. Compositions may comprise one or more <i>Propionibacterium acnes</i> proteins, immunogenic portions thereof, or polynucleotides that encode such portions. Alternatively, a therapeutic composition may comprise an antibody that binds a <i>Propionibacterium acnes</i> protein, antigen presenting cell that expresses a <i>Propionibacterium acnes</i> protein, or a T cell that is specific for cells expressing such a protein.
