hematopoietic system
• mice injected with UV-irradiated dying thymocytes into the spleen, liver, or kidney exhibit defective clearance of engulfed, dying cells and no induction of LC3-II, indicating failure of LC3-associated phagocytosis-dependent mechanism to degrade engulfed corpses

homeostasis/metabolism
• serum CCL4 levels are increased in mice injected with UV-irradiated dying thymocytes
• serum IL-1beta levels are increased in mice injected with UV-irradiated dying thymocytes
• serum IL-10 levels are not increased in mutant mice injected with UV-irradiated dying thymocytes like in wild-type mice
• serum IL-6 levels are increased in mice injected with UV-irradiated dying thymocytes
