41. This interaction negatively controls effector function of innate immune cells such as host cell phagocytosis . 42. Strikingly, it has been shown that anti-C1qRp significantly reduced C1q enhanced phagocytosis . 43. Immunoglobulins recognize foreign antigens and initiate immune responses such as phagocytosis and the complement system. 44. Specifically, it mentions that white blood cells " eat " infectious agents through Phagocytosis . 45. The coating of platelets with IgG renders them susceptible to opsonization and phagocytosis by receptor agonists. 46. Ursodeoxycholic acid has also been shown experimentally to suppress immune response such as immune cell phagocytosis . 47. Phagocytosis of the hosts own cells is common as part of regular tissue development and maintenance.48. The molecular mechanisms facilitating opsonin-dependent phagocytosis are different for specific opsonin / receptor pairs. 49. Granulocytes apparently develop from plasmatocytes and are also amoeboid, although no phagocytosis has been observed. 50. Thus blocking CD47 with antibody turns off don t eat me signal and favors phagocytosis .
