July 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” 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.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” 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.
