September 2021 in “Autophagy” 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.
January 2011 in “Open Collections” This study observed that mouse preputial glands share general characteristics with rat glands but differ in their intimate association with a hair follicle and absence of proteinaceous granules.
January 2022 in “Figshare” 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.
January 2021 in “Figshare” 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.
