Murine splenic CD45 + erythroid cells display a transcriptomic signature of antigen-presenting cells
Nature ·
The Brief
- A study reports that murine splenic CD45+ erythroid cells display a transcriptomic signature of antigen-presenting cells.
- The source feed provided no summary, so methods, sample sizes and detailed results are not available here.
Why it matters
If confirmed, the finding suggests that some mouse splenic erythroid cells share gene-expression features with antigen-presenting cells, which could affect how researchers classify splenic cell populations in immunology studies.
Who’s affected
- immunologists
