Epidermal growth factor-like domain repeat of stabilin-2 recognizes phosphatidylserine during cell corpse clearance.
Exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) on the cell surface occurs early during apoptosis and serves as a recognition signal for phagocytes. Clearance of apoptotic cells by a membrane PS receptor is one of the critical anti-inflammatory functions of macrophages. However, the PS binding receptors and their recognition mechanisms have not been fully investigated. Recently, we reported that stabilin-2...
متن کاملStabilin-1 mediates phosphatidylserine-dependent clearance of cell corpses in alternatively activated macrophages.
Stabilin-1 is specifically expressed in alternatively activated macrophages. These macrophages participate in anti-inflammatory and healing processes, and display a high phagocytic capacity. In this study, we provide evidence that stabilin-1 is a membrane receptor that performs a crucial function in the clearance of cell corpses. Stabilin-1 is expressed on the cell surface of alternatively acti...
متن کاملCell corpse engulfment mediated by C. elegans phosphatidylserine receptor through CED-5 and CED-12.
During apoptosis, phosphatidylserine, which is normally restricted to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane, is exposed on the surface of apoptotic cells and has been suggested to act as an "eat-me" signal to trigger phagocytosis. It is unclear how phagocytes recognize phosphatidylserine. Recently, a putative phosphatidylserine receptor (PSR) was identified and proposed to mediate recognitio...
متن کاملAutophagy genes promote apoptotic cell corpse clearance.
Autophagy is a catabolic process through which damaged organelles and protein aggregates are delivered to lysosomes for degradation. Autophagy genes are reported to promote exposure of "eat me" signals on the surface of apoptotic cells, but whether they function in engulfing cells is not clear. Recently, we found that the autophagy mutants atg-18 and epg-5 are defective in removing apoptotic ce...
متن کاملThe human hyaluronan receptor for endocytosis (HARE/Stabilin-2) is a systemic clearance receptor for heparin.
The hyaluronic acid receptor for endocytosis (HARE; also designated Stabilin-2) mediates systemic clearance of hyaluronan and chondroitin sulfates from the vascular and lymphatic circulations. The internalized glycosaminoglycans are degraded in lysosomes, thus completing their normal turnover process. Sinusoidal endothelial cells of human liver, lymph node, and spleen express two HARE isoforms ...
