The activation of the phosphatidylserine receptor triggers this process.
The activation of the phosphatidylserine receptor triggers this process. This process is followedby a pathway in which NADPH oxidase and myeloperoxidase create an oxidative burst.Streptococcal M protein prevents this process, as do polysaccharide capsules. The binding ofcomplement proteins and antibodies primes this action in a process known as opsonization. It resultsin the creation of a (*) vesicle which then fuses with a lysosome, and among the cells capable of it aremicroglia and neutrophils. Other cells that perform this action differentiate from monocytes and are knownas macrophages. For 10 points, name this process in which cells engulf debris and food from theirsurrounding environment, whose name means "cell eating".
