Identification of Tim4 as a phosphatidylserine receptor [PDF]
In programmed cell death, a large number of cells undergo apoptosis, and are engulfed by macrophages to avoid the release of noxious materials from the dying cells. In definitive erythropoiesis, nuclei are expelled from erythroid precursor cells and are engulfed by macrophages.

Evaluating new therapies in gastrointestinal stromal tumor using in vivo molecular optical imaging [PDF]
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors in the US. The majority (~85%) of GISTs possess gain-of-function mutations in KIT or PDGFRA, causing constitutive activation of the kinase receptor.

Lipid ratios as a marker for red blood cell storage quality and as a possible explanation for donor gender differences in storage quality [PDF]
Background and objectives Red blood cells that are stored for transfusions as red cell concentrates (RCCs) undergo changes during the storage period, culminating in the lysis of the cells. The goal of this work is to find markers that are linked to
