Subject: Does Sebum have antibacterial properties

I understand that an increase of sebum leads to a more "likeable" region for 
bacteria to accumalate, and I understand that the basic role of sebum is to 
stop the skin from basically drying out. For my independent study I am 
interested in Immunology and as an initial question would like to know the 
thoughts of other scientists if they believe that sebum has any antibacterial 
properties that aids as a deffence mechanism against harmfull bodies.
