Efferocytosis is an Innate Antibacterial Mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One third of the world’s population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, causing two million deaths annually. The bacteria avoid immune clearance by persisting within macrophages by subverting normal phagosome maturation and acidification.

ERK5 activation in macrophages promotes efferocytosis and inhibits atherosclerosis

open access: yes, 2014
Background—Efferocytosis is a process by which dead and dying cells are removed by phagocytic cells. Efferocytosis by macrophages is thought to curb the progression of atherosclerosis, but the mechanistic insight of this process is lacking.Methods and ...

Senotherapeutics for Knee Osteoarthritis

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease that imposes a significant economic burden and deteriorates quality of life. Nevertheless, current therapeutic options for OA are limited to symptomatic remedies. As such, there is a high interest in novel methods for treating or preventing OA.

Establishment of a novel efferocytosis potential index predicts prognosis and immunotherapy response in cancers

open access: yesHeliyon
The biological function and prognostic value of efferocytosis in cancer remains unclear. In this study, we systematically analysed the expression profiles and genetic variations of 50 efferocytosis-related regulator genes in 33 cancer types.

Crbn modulates calcium influx by regulating Orai1 during efferocytosis

open access: yes, 2020
Calcium flux regulating intracellular calcium levels is essential and modulated for efficient efferocytosis. However, the molecular mechanism by which calcium flux is modulated during efferocytosis remains elusive.

Identification of Seven in absentia homolog 2 as a potential efferocytosis-related biomarker in diabetic foot ulcers.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
IntroductionWound of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is chronic and hard to heal, characterized by impaired inflammatory response, dysfunction of keratinocyte and endothelial cells and improper removal of dying cells. Efferocytosis, as a trigger for phenotype

Intersection of systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune thyroid disease: Shared pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, and management

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
A proposed mechanistic framework of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) pathogenesis. In Stage 1, genetically susceptible individuals harbor risk variants within major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and non‐HLA loci that impair central and peripheral immune tolerance mechanisms within the thymic and peripheral ...

Extracellular Histones Inhibit Efferocytosis

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 2012
The uptake and clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages and other phagocytic cells, a process called efferocytosis, is a major component in the resolution of inflammation. Increased concentrations of extracellular histones are found during acute inflammatory states and appear to contribute to organ system dysfunction and mortality. In these studies,
