Discovering Molecules That Regulate Efferocytosis Using Primary Human Macrophages and High Content Imaging.
Defective clearance of apoptotic cells can result in sustained inflammation and subsequent autoimmunity. Macrophages, the "professional phagocyte" of the body, are responsible for efficient, non-phlogistic, apoptotic cell clearance. Controlling phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by macrophage...
