Research Abstract |
We generated a Drosophila line that lacks receptors responsible for the phagocytic removal of apoptotic cells. These flies had prolonged larval stage, indicating the importance of apoptotic cell clearance in growth. To determine the characteristic of' loser cells', which remain in animals due to a defect in phagocytosis, a mosaic mutation for artificial cell competition was introduced into a phagocytosis-deficient fly line. However, we could not complete the examination of these flies within the allocated research period.
