Significant male-specific changes occurred in cellular markers of autophagy, including obesity increasing pAkt, Slc38a9, and Atg12, while caloric restriction reduced pRPS6 and increased Atg7. In contrast females experienced changes due to diet/caloric restriction predominately in lysosomal markers including increased TFE3, FLCN, FNIP2, and pAMPK. The gene discussed is FLCN; the disease is Obesity.
