where is pseudomonas aeruginosa found in the human body?
lungs
skin microflora can be commensals, mutualistic or pathogens. often they can be all three depending upon the strength of the person's immune system. research upon the immune system in the gut and lungs has shown that microflora aids immunity development: however such research has only started upon whether this is the case with the skin. "pseudomonas aeruginosa" is an example of a mutualistic bacterium that can turn into a pathogen and cause disease: if it gains entry into the circulatory system it can result in infections in bone, joint, gastrointestinal, and respiratory systems. it can also cause dermatitis. however, pseudomonas aeruginosa produces antimicrobial substances such as pseudomonic acid (that are exploited commercially such as mupirocin). this works against staphylococcal and streptococcal infections. pseudomonas aeruginosa also produces substances that inhibit the growth of fungus species such as "candida krusei", "candida albicans", "torulopsis glabrata", "saccharomyces cerevisiae" and "aspergillus fumigatus". it can also inhibit the growth of "helicobacter pylori". so important is its antimicrobial actions that it has been noted that "removing "p. aeruginosa" from the skin, through use of oral or topical antibiotics, may inversely allow for aberrant yeast colonization and infection."
