Pannexin 1 helps attract phagocytes
Apoptotic cells were shown recently to discharge the nucleotides ATP and UTP to act as 'find-me' signals for phagocytes that engulf dying cells before they release potentially harmful cellular contents. This paper shows that the release of ATP and UTP is through the plasma membrane channel pannexin 1, which is...
