Abstract

Reciprocity between the skin microbiome and the host underlies the occurrence, exacerbation, and severity of atopic dermatitis (AD). However, the role of the skin microbiome in the pathogenesis of AD is yet to be depicted. This review highlights thehost–microbiome interactions which rely on barrier status, microbiome composition, andmicrobe–microbe interactions. A microbiome shift, with an abundance of S. aureus and lower microbial diversity, compromises the skin barrier function. It shows that epidermal barrier defect depletes the protective commensal skin bacteria and demonstrates how dysbiosis of the skin microbiome can lead to AD.
