Apoptosis-mediated ADAM10 activation removes a mucin barrier promoting T cell efferocytosis

Abstract Efferocytic clearance of apoptotic cells in general, and T cells in particular, is required for tissue and immune homeostasis. Transmembrane mucins are extended glycoproteins highly expressed in the cell glycocalyx that function as a barrier to phagocytosis. Whether and how mucins may be re...
