  Definition: Phagocytosis is a specific form of endocytosis involving the vesicular internalization of solid particles, such as bacteria. It is therefore distinct from other forms of endocytosis such as pinocytosis, the vesicular internalization of various liquids, and recptor-dependent endocytosis.
  Phagocytosis involves three distinct but interrelated steps:
  (1) recognition and attachment of the particle to be ingested by the leukocyte;
  (2) its engulfment, with subsequent (...)

  The Src-family kinases (SFKs) Fgr and Hck inhibit chemokine signaling in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and dendritic cells by phosphorylation of PIR-B, an inhibitory receptor expressed on leukocytes.
  In resting cells, PIR-B phosphorylation is constitutive but is decreased transiently by addition of chemokines. In Fgr/Hck-deficient cells, constitutive PIR-B phosphorylation is markedly decreased.
