Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells via the receptor MerTK is important for immune tolerance. In this issue of Immunity, Zhou et al. report that blockade of MerTK-mediated phagocytosis mobilizes anti-tumor immunity through a mechanism that involves the transport of tumor-derived cGAMP into macrophages via the ATP-activated channel P2X7R.
通过 MerTK 受体吞噬凋亡细胞对于免疫耐受很重要。在本期《免疫》中，Zhou 等人报道阻断 MerTK 介导的吞噬作用通过一种机制调动了抗肿瘤免疫，该机制涉及通过 ATP 激活的 P2X7R 通道将肿瘤衍生的 cGAMP 转运到巨噬细胞中。
