Calcium influx through T-type calcium channels regulates secondary necrosis and inflammation through recruitment of ATG9A-mediated membrane repair
Abstract Approximately 200–300 billion cells die daily through apoptosis, a prominent form of programmed cell death, to maintain tissue homoeostasis. If apoptotic cells are not efficiently removed by phagocytes, they progress to secondary necrosis when the plasma membrane (PM) becomes permeabilised and release proinflammatory damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) such as HMGB1 and ATP, which drive inflammation and contribute to autoimmune diseases.
