Pannexin 1 channels mediate ‘find–me’ signal release and membrane permeability during apoptosis

Apoptotic cells release ‘find-me’ signals at the earliest stages of death to recruit phagocytes1. The nucleotides ATP and UTP represent one class of find-me signals2, but their mechanism of release is not known. Here, we identify the plasma membrane channel pannexin 1 (PANX1) as a mediator of find-m...
