abstract：:Myeloid leukocytes form actin-based plasma membrane protrusions, called podosomes, that are implicated in myeloid cell recruitment into tissues and cell migration within the interstitium. In this study, we show that tyrosine kinases of the Abl family are present in podosomes formed by murine and human macrophages. Sil...
