Abstract:
:Dying cells actively attract professional phagocytes by sending out soluble 'find-me' signals. The characterization and identification of the corresponding molecular entities have revealed that 'find-me' signals come in different flavors, including peptides, proteins, lipids and complex structures, such as apoptotic microblebs. With the very recent report by Elliott et al., nucleotides as a novel nuance enter the menu.

杂志文章abstract::Mdm2 is the key negative regulator of the tumour suppressor p53, making it an attractive target for anti-cancer drug design. We recently identified a new role of Mdm2 in gene repression through its direct interaction with several proteins of the polycomb group (PcG) family. PcG proteins form polycomb repressive comple...
