Abstract
We have developed flow cytometry antibodies against three molecules expressed on tissue-resident mouse macrophages: MerTK, GPNMB (aka Osteoactivin, DC-HIL), and VSIG4 (aka CRIg). MerTK, a receptor tyrosine kinase, plays a crucial role in the clearance of apoptotic cells, as well as in the regulation of cytokine secretion and survival. MerTK is highly expressed by splenic red pulp macrophages, which aid in the clearance of apoptotic cells in the...
