🔬 In JCB's November issue: image shows a #macrophage nibbling a #cancer cell. The bone marrow–derived mouse macrophage is expressing a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (green) that activates the Fc Receptor signaling pathway in response to Her2. From Rollins et al. rupress.org/jcb/issue/22...

We have TWO papers out in @jcb.org this month! 🎉 First, @kirstin-rollins.bsky.social showed that macrophages nibble adherent target cells, like the ones found in solid tumors, instead of phagocytosing. Amazing movies from @sareenfiaz.bsky.social doi.org/10.1083/jcb....

Target cell adhesion limits macrophage #phagocytosis and promotes #trogocytosis, say @kirstin-rollins.bsky.social, @mmorrissey.bsky.social et al. @ucsantabarbara.bsky.social rupress.org/jcb/article/... #Macrophages #Immunology
