Engulfment of apoptotic cells is predominantly executed by phagocytes via the recognition of eat me signals like phosphatidylserine (PS). Various PS-specific receptors exist on phagocytes, including Tyro3, Axl, and MerTK receptor tyrosine kinases (TAMs), T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain containing 1 and 4 (TIM1/4), and the newly identified CD300 family. The aim of the present auto-commentary is to highlight recent findings regarding the Cd300lf and Cd300lb receptors and their emerging roles in the development of autoimmune disease.
