Microglia Actively Remodel Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis through the Phagocytosis Secretome

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2020
During adult hippocampal neurogenesis, most newborn cells undergo apoptosis and are rapidly phagocytosed by resident microglia to prevent the spillover of intracellular contents. Here, we propose that phagocytosis is not merely passive corpse removal but

Complement receptor-3 negatively regulates the phagocytosis of degenerated myelin through tyrosine kinase Syk and cofilin

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2012
Background Intact myelin, which normally surrounds axons, breaks down in Wallerian degeneration following axonal injury and during neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis.

Extracellular Matrix Protein Tenascin C Increases Phagocytosis Mediated by CD47 Loss of Function in Glioblastoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Glioblastomas (GBM) are highly infiltrated by myeloid-derived innate immune cells that contribute to the immunosuppressive nature of the brain tumor microenvironment (TME).

Phagocytosis of Apoptotic Cells in Resolution of Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Efficient inflammation resolution is important not only for the termination of the inflammatory response but also for the restoration of tissue integrity. An integral process to resolution of inflammation is the phagocytosis of dying cells by macrophages,

Phagocytic receptors activate and immune inhibitory receptor SIRPalpha inhibits phagocytosis through paxillin and cofilin

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
The innate-immune function of phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, tissue-debris, pathogens and cancer cells is essential for homeostasis, tissue repair, fighting infection and combating malignancy.

SIRT1-induced deacetylation of Akt expedites platelet phagocytosis and delays HEMEC aging

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021
Maintaining the health of the endothelium is of critical importance to prevention against cell aging. The current study was performed to clarify the role of sirtuin1 (SIRT1) in platelet phagocytosis in cell aging and identified its downstream molecular ...

Target shape dependence in a simple model of receptor-mediated endocytosis and phagocytosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Phagocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis are vitally important particle uptake mechanisms in many cell types, ranging from single-cell organisms to immune cells.

RNA interference in J774 macrophages reveals a role for coronin 1 in mycobacterial trafficking but not in actin-dependent processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Macrophages are crucial for innate immunity, apoptosis, and tissue remodeling, processes that rely on the capacity of macrophages to internalize and process cargo through phagocytosis.

Therapeutic modulation of phagocytosis in glioblastoma can activate both innate and adaptive antitumour immunity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Tumour cell phagocytosis by antigen presenting cells (APCs) is critical to the generation of antitumour immunity. However, cancer cells can evade phagocytosis by upregulating anti-phagocytosis molecule CD47.

The Phagocytic Code Regulating Phagocytosis of Mammalian Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mammalian phagocytes can phagocytose (i.e. eat) other mammalian cells in the body if they display certain signals, and this phagocytosis plays fundamental roles in development, cell turnover, tissue homeostasis and disease prevention.
