Furthermore, other receptors present on the surface of phagocytic cells, such as DC-SIGN, SIGNR1 and Endo180, exhibit similar ligand binding ability to the mannose receptor and so it is likely that in its absence, these proteins are able to compensate and induce phagocytosis.
Ademais, outros receptores presentes na superficie de células fagocíticas, como DC-SIGN, SIGNR1 e Endo180, exhiben unha capacidade de unión a ligandos similar ao receptor da manosa e así probablemente, na súa ausencia estas proteínas poden compensar isto e inducen a fagocitose.
