CLEC18A Impairs Phagocytosis by Reducing FcγRIIA Expression and Arresting Autophagosome-Lysosome Fusion
ABSTRACT Mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC) is a hepatitis C virus (HCV)–related extrahepatic manifestation that is characterized by the abnormal presence of immune complexes (ICs). This may be due to the reduced uptake and clearance of ICs. The C-type lectin member 18A (CLEC18A) is a secretory protein tha...
