    Bubble Blasters vs. Acne Biofilm | Cütie Catcherz: Beneath The Surface Podcast 011

    Ever wondered what happens when microscopic bubbles become bacterial bouncers? This week’s episode dives into the high-powered, real-world tech of DYNAJETS® hydrodynamic cavitation, a sci-fi-sounding disinfection system that uses bubble collapse to obliterate bacteria—including some of the toughest, like Cutibacterium acnes. Join MD/PhD student and cartoon creator Steven Christian as he unpacks the paper “Disinfection of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria using DYNAJETS hydrodynamic cavitating jets” from Ultrasonics Sonochemistry. It's a splashy deep dive into: 🧪 Why gram-positive bacteria like C. acnes are harder to kill 💣 How popping bubbles generate forces strong enough to rupture microbial walls 💡 Why energy-efficient disinfection tech could revolutionize skin care and water treatment 🧬 And how all of this maps directly to the world of Cütie Catcherz, from Biofilm Fortresses to Buster Gel strategies! 💭 Whether you’re a science buff, skincare nerd, or a Cütie Catcherz fan, this episode connects microbiology to magical metaphors—and gives you a powerful lens for seeing why “brute force” isn’t always the best solution. 📚 Citation: Loraine et al., Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2012 🔗 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultsonch.2011.10.011 🎧 Subscribe to Cütie Catcherz: Beneath the Skin for weekly lore drops where science meets soul and facts get their fantasy glow-up. 🌐 cutiecatcherz.com | 📱 IG: @cutiecatcherz

    Skin Resilience & the Secret Science Behind Acne | Cütie Catcherz: Beneath The Surface Podcast 010

    From Acne to Harmony: GRHL3, Skin Resilience & the Secret Science Behind Cütie Catcherz Description What if your skin had a built-in peacekeeper? This episode dives into a wild, fascinating study that explains why acne often clears up on its own—while its meaner cousin, hidradenitis suppurativa, tends to stick around. And yes, it connects directly to the microbial mischief in Cütie Catcherz 🦠✨ Join MD/PhD student and creative force Steven Christian as he unpacks the paper "Whole transcriptomic analysis of acne and hidradenitis suppurativa reveals common inflammatory but distinct tolerance-inducing mechanisms" from the Journal of Investigative Dermatology. It’s a molecular deep dive that reveals: 🧠 Why acne and HS look similar but behave so differently 🔍 The role of a magical-sounding protein called GRHL3 in spontaneous healing 🛡️ How inflammation is just one half of the battle—resolution is the real MVP 🎮 And how this maps directly to Iltopia’s Cütie Catcherz lore, from Nimbus’s arc to the true role of Base Cüties and the power of balance-driven tools like Serenity Mist 💡 Acne isn't just a surface issue—this episode will help you understand the inner healing switch your skin might already have. 📚 Citation: Dajnoki et al., J Invest Dermatol, 2023 🔗 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jid.2023.03.920 🎧 Subscribe to Cütie Catcherz: Beneath the Skin for weekly lore drops where science meets story. 🌐 cutiecatcherz.com | 📱 IG: @cutiecatcherz

    Real-World Tactics for C. Acnes | Cütie Catcherz: Beneath The Surface Podcast 009

    What happens when the real-world bacteria behind acne turns up in a prosthetic joint—and gets taken down with nothing but pills? That’s the wild, true tale we’re diving into today. 🦠💊 This episode breaks down the case report titled “Oral antibiotic regimen for Cutibacterium acnes prosthetic joint infection: a case report of successful treatment”, published in The American Journal of the Medical Sciences. It tells the story of a stubborn post-surgical infection—caused by the same bacteria behind our Cütie Catcherz—and how doctors defeated it using just an oral antibiotic combo. No IVs. No drama. Just science. I'm Steven Christian, MD/PhD student and creator of Cütie Catcherz, and today we’re connecting the dots between: 🧠 How C. acnes creates biofilm fortresses IRL 🔬 Why diagnosis can be tricky and delayed 💊 How a simple oral med combo (rifampin + amoxicillin) brought down the infection 🎮 How this all maps onto the Iltopian world of Cütie Catcherz—think King Cootie, Biofilm Hives, and targeted tools like Phage Darts and Serenity Mist. 💡 This case validates the science behind our worldbuilding and adds a real-world example to back up the power of precision care and microbiome balance. 📚 Citation: Nguyen et al., Am J Med Sci, 2025 🔗 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/s0002-9629(25)00868-7 🎧 Subscribe to Cütie Catcherz: Beneath the Skin for weekly drops blending science, soul, and story. 🌐 cutiecatcherz.com | 📱 IG: @cutiecatcherz

    When Skin Bacteria Become Superheroes | Cütie Catcherz: Beneath The Surface Podcast 008

    What if the same bacteria causing acne could help fight cancer? 🦠✨ In this mind-bending episode, we dive into a real study published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology titled “Melanoma cell survival is suppressed by splenocytes stimulated by Cutibacterium acnes.” Yep, you read that right—our so-called skin troublemaker might just have a secret hero arc. I’m Steven Christian, your friendly neighborhood MD/PhD student and creator of Cütie Catcherz, the AR-powered comic that turns microbiology into magical storytelling. And today, we’re cracking open the science behind how C. acnes might trigger an immune response that helps kill melanoma cells. 🧬🧠💥 Tune in for: How C. acnes–stimulated immune cells attacked melanoma cells in the lab Why our skin bacteria might not be villains after all What this means for immunity, inflammation, and yes, the world of Cütie Catcherz How science inspires deeper, more empathetic storytelling about our bodies 💡 This isn’t just microbiome 101. It’s the blueprint for how "bad guys" in biology might wear hidden capes. 📚 Citation: Matsushima et al., J Invest Dermatol, 2019 🔗 DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jid.2019.03.559 🎧 Subscribe to Cütie Catcherz: Beneath the Skin 🌐 Visit cutiecatcherz.com for more episodes, comics, and health storytelling magic 📱 Follow @cutiecatcherz for behind-the-scenes worldbuilding and research drops
