This study suggests that tissue transglutaminase (TG2) may play a role in sebum production by regulating autophagy in sebaceous glands, offering potential targets for dermatological interventions.
In this study on mouse preputial glands, suppressing ATG7-dependent autophagy delayed age-related changes, affected lipid metabolism, and reduced pheromone production, highlighting autophagy's roles in glandular homeostasis and cell breakdown.
This study found that inhibiting autophagy in mouse preputial glands alters lipid metabolism, delays aging-related duct changes, and reduces pheromone production, indicating autophagy's critical role in gland homeostasis and cell breakdown during secretion.
This study found that autophagy in the preputial glands of mice plays a crucial role in regulating lipid and fatty acid metabolism, as well as pheromone production.
