Regulators of phagocytosis as pharmacologic targets for stroke treatment
Stroke, including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, causes massive cell death in the brain, which is followed by secondary inflammatory injury initiated by disease-associated molecular patterns released from dead cells. Phagocytosis, a cellular process of

A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to identify phagocytosis modulators in monocytic THP-1 cells
Phagocytosis of microbial pathogens, dying or dead cells, and cell debris is essential to maintain tissue homeostasis. Impairment of these processes is associated with autoimmunity, developmental defects and toxic protein accumulation.

Impaired clearance of early apoptotic cells mediated by inhibitory IgG antibodies in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Deficient efferocytosis (i.e. phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells) has been frequently reported in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
