Mitochondrial autophagy is especially important.What’s Coming?Research evaluating the effects of mechanoforces between fibroblasts and the ECM and ascertaining how these change with age.Understanding the changes in mechanoforces and how they affect genetic expression and fibroblast function.Identifying epigenetic methylation patterns of aged skin.Controlling macroautophagy of mitochondria may be an anti-aging strategy in the future.Timely clearance of senescent cells before they create too much damage may be an approach to prevent skin aging.
