Mfge8 diminishes the severity of tissue fibrosis in mice by binding and targeting collagen for uptake by macrophages

Milk fat globule epidermal growth factor 8 (Mfge8) is a soluble glycoprotein known to regulate inflammation and immunity by mediating apoptotic cell clearance. Since fibrosis can occur as a result of exaggerated apoptosis and inflammation, we set out to investigate the hypothesis that Mfge8 might ne...
