Research Abstract |
This study examined that the Gas6 expression and regulation of macrophages functions by Gas6 in injured-skeletal muscle. In the results, it observed that injured-skeletal muscle by Cardiotoxin-induction was increased Gas6 expression compared with control muscle. In addition, it observed that Gas6 stimulation regulate macrophages phenotype.
