• Astrocytes Control Synapse Formation, Function, and Elimination (2015, positive): “elegans CED-6), and ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette, subfamily A member 1), and participates in cellular debris recognition and engulfment (Zhou et al. 2001; MacDonald et al. 2006; Yu et al. 2008).”
• Phagocytosis and the actin cytoskeleton. (2001, background): “In this regard it is particularly intriguing that the newly cloned ced-1gene from C. elegans(which encodes a transmembrane receptor that is essential for the uptake of apoptotic cells) contains an intracellular YXXL motif (Zhou et al., 2001).”
