Abstract
⺠We generated mice lacking Atg5 and autophagy in keratin K5-positive epithelia. ⺠Suppression of autophagy in thymic epithelium was not associated with signs of autoimmunity. ⺠Autophagy was required for normal terminal differentiation of preputial gland cells. ⺠Autophagy-deficient cells of the preputial glands degraded nuclear DNA prematurely.
