Effects of Lipid Interactions on Model Vesicle Engulfment by Alveolar Macrophages

The engulfment function of macrophages relies on complex molecular interactions involving both lipids and proteins. In particular, the clearance of apoptotic bodies (efferocytosis) is enabled by externalization on the cell target of phosphatidylserine lipids, which activate receptors on macrophages,...
