MERTK-dependent efferocytosis in Cx3cr1-expressing myeloid cells supports recovery after traumatic brain injury in male mice.
Findings identify MERTK in Cx3cr1-expressing cells as a regulator of efferocytosis and support a protective role in limiting tissue damage, preserving vascular integrity, and promoting functional recovery after TBI in male mice.
