Down-regulation of GAS6 by M1 macrophages resulted in impaired efferocytosis for synovial apoptotic cells, causing synovial hyperplasia and obesity-associated OA development.
High-resolution imaging of microglia in zebrafish reveals a rate-limiting role for the centrosome in the engulfment of apoptotic neurons during brain development.

Internalization of apoptotic SARS-CoV-2 infected cells leads to proinflammatory macrophage activation and reduction in macrophage capacity to perform further efferocytosis.
In the injured sciatic nerve, blood-derived monocytes and macrophages eat dying leukocytes, thereby contributing to nerve debridement and inflammation resolution, and this correlates with neuronal regeneration.

After an injury to the skin, murine wounds upregulate apoptosis and efferocytosis pathways, which are required for effective healing and may similarly impact wound healing in diabetic patients.

Loss-of-function variants of human ACK1 and BRK kinase underlie systemic lupus erythematosus in young patients from multiplex families and disrupt the anti-inflammatory response of macrophages to apoptotic cells.

Clearance of engineered Salmonella which trigger regulated cell death is dependent upon the cellular 'bucket list,' which is determined both by cell death signaling pathway and by cell type infected.
Tyrosine phosphorylation of the intracellular domain of LRP1 serves as a molecular switch to regulate cellular cholesterol homeostasis through nuclear hormone receptor-mediated regulation of the cellular cholesterol exporter ABCA1.

Targeting ErbB receptor tyrosine kinases modifies neutrophil survival and inflammation across multiple species, and reveals a new use for ErbB therapeutics in resolving inflammatory disease.
