Protective Role of the MER Tyrosine Kinase via Efferocytosis in Rheumatoid Arthritis Models
ObjectiveRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and progressive joint disease. It appears that anti-inflammatory feedback mechanisms that could restrain joint inflammation and restore homeostasis are insufficient to perform this control. In this study, we investigated the contribution of the MER tyr...
