Phosphatidylserine externalization is associated with cellular development, differentiation, and
death. Infection-induced phosphatidylserine externalization was immediate,
transient, calcium dependent, and communicable dosage abased and was artless by
a broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor. Chlamydia-infected beef accelerated claret
array and added the macrophage phagocytosis of adulterated beef that was
phosphatidylserine dependent. The accelerated externalization of phosphatidylserine
by adulterated beef may be an important agency in the pathogenesis of
chlamydial infections.
