In myocardial infarction (MI), a plenty of cardiomyocytes undergo necrosis and necroptosis due to the lack of oxygen and nutrients.The dead cardiomyocytes are promptly engulfed kaiser copy stands by phagocytes.When the dead cells are not engulfed, the noxious contents of the jumbo gourmet tava cells are released outside, and thus, induce inflammation, and obstruct the function of organs.

Therefore, phagocytosis is crucial for maintaining homeostasis of organs.Herein, we describe a protocol of an in vitro phagocytosis assay of necroptotic cells.
