Drugging the efferocytosis process: concepts and opportunities
Open accessAbstract
The daily removal of billions of apoptotic cells in the human body via the process of efferocytosis is essential for homeostasis. To allow for this continuous efferocytosis, rapid phenotypic changes occur in the phagocytes enabling them to engulf and digest the apoptotic cargo. In addition, efferocytosis is actively anti-inflammatory and promotes resolution. Owing to its ubiquitous nature and the sheer volume of cell turnover, efferocytosis is a point of vulnerability. Aberrations in efferocytosis are associated with numerous inflammatory pathologies, including atherosclerosis, cancer and infections. The recent exciting discoveries defining the molecular machinery involved in efferocytosis have opened many avenues for therapeutic intervention, with several agents now in clinical trials.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“efferocytosis in other settings can promote fibrosis as part of the tissue resolution process, for example, by secreting TGF-β1 (12, 13).”
From Impaired TIM4-mediated efferocytosis by liver macrophages contributes to fibrosis in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis (2025) · cites this paper as [13]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“While some progress has been made with respect to the Fractalkine receptor (CX3C motif chemokine receptor 1), Axl, MerTK, CD47 and Tim4/3, no approaches have thus far been clinically approved (64).”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Efferocytosis not only prevents dead cell accumulation but also reprograms macrophages to execute tissue resolution functions, and impaired efferocytosis contributes to many human chronic inflammatory diseases (12, 13).”

The check wasn’t confident either way, so it gives no verdict — never disputed.
In the citing paper
“It is seen as a major hurdle to using antigen presenting cells in cell-based therapies (61–64).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
