This study found that blocking autophagy in Atg7-deficient mouse hair keratinocytes altered the molecular composition of hair shafts by increasing the abundance of proteins involved in protein turnover while keratins remained unchanged, highlighting autophagy's role in reducing non-cytoskeletal protein concentrations in hair.

In this study, researchers found that autophagy is crucial for maintaining the mature protein composition of hair shafts, with its disruption leading to increased levels of various proteins, suggesting potential diagnostic applications for detecting impaired autophagy through hair proteomic analysis.

The researchers reported that autophagy, a lysosome-dependent degradation mechanism, plays a significant role in the cellular remodeling of keratinocyte differentiation in the skin, affecting the properties of the differentiation products by altering cellular components during this process.

This study found that autophagy activation in hair follicle stem cells shifted their metabolism to glycolysis, which promoted hair growth by initiating the hair follicle cycle.

This study found that while finasteride alone disturbed protein homeostasis in rat skeletal muscle, resistance exercise appeared to mitigate these effects.
