• [1.5] 
  - increased abundance of S. aureus with depletion of S. epidermidis and Corynebacterium spp. among AD patients.
  - S. epidermidis, a commensal present on non–inflamed skin, appears to be S. aureus best antagonist.
  - less severe flares of AD had higher counts of S. epidermidis whereas the more severe flares were associated with S. aureus
• [1.22] 
  - S. epidermidis produces the peptides PSMγ and PSMδ, which inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria on the skin.
