Studies on mechanisms involved in macrophage recognition of apoptotic neutrophils
The macrophage integrin αvβ3 and CD36 have been proposed to act in concert to bind thrombospondin which forms a molecular bridge between the surface of the macrophage and the apoptotic neutrophil. This thesis has investigated the regulatory mechanisms underlying this macrophage phagocytic system. Ph...
