Rosacea Clinical Trial
Official title:
Lipidome and Microbiome Profile of the Eye in Rosacea
The question that the investigators aim to address in this proposal is how the local lipid mediator profiles of ceramides and eicosanoids are altered in cutaneous and ocular rosacea and how antibiotics alter the lipidome. The investigators also seek to understand how the microbiome is changed in those with and without rosacea, and how the microbiome is altered in those with rosacea. Understanding how the lipidome is modulated in rosacea with antibiotic treatment will serve as the first step in targeting therapies toward directly altering the lipidome to reduce inflammation and ultimately reduce the use of antibiotics.
Rosacea is a common condition that has multiple subtypes that exhibit inflammation and deficits in the skin/eye barrier function. Cutaneous rosacea is estimated to have an incidence of 10-22% while the prevalence of ocular rosacea ranging from 6-72%. Although rosacea is not an infection, antibiotics are widely used as first-line therapy due to their anti-inflammatory and skin-barrier function supporting effects. The most common class of antibiotics used are the tetracyclines, such as doxycycline and minocycline. With the emergence of community acquired methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) as well as macrolide resistant Streptococci and Staphylococci, there is growing concern for the widespread use of antibiotics for non-infectious conditions. The current clinical gap in practice is that there are few alternative therapies to antibiotics and this is partly due to our lack of understanding of what leads to the impaired skin/eye barrier and inflammation in rosacea. Few lipid-based studies have been performed in rosacea but there is early evidence for the importance in the lipidome to rosacea. The sebum in those with papulopustular rosacea was identified to have an abnormal profile to their sebum with a deficiency in long chain saturated fatty acids6 that correlates with the deficient skin barrier that is seen in rosacea. Treatment with minocycline was shown to restore skin barrier function in papulopustular rosacea but no lipid profile related measures were performed. Moreover, no studies have evaluated the role of other lipid mediators that are closely associated with the skin barrier and inflammation such as the ceramides and the eicosanoids. The question that the investigators aim to address in this proposal is how the local lipid mediator profiles of ceramides and eicosanoids are altered in cutaneous and ocular rosacea and how antibiotics alter the lipidome. The investigators also seek to understand how the microbiome is changed in those with and without rosacea, and how the microbiome is altered in those with rosacea. Understanding how the lipidome is modulated in rosacea with antibiotic treatment will serve as the first step in targeting therapies toward directly altering the lipidome to reduce inflammation and ultimately reduce the use of antibiotics. ;
