AXL and hematoma: Axl/Mertk double knockoutmarkedly reduces macrophage erythrophagocytosis in ICH mice, resulting in largerhematomas, greater iron deposition, and worse neurological deficits [18].Conversely, recombinant Gas6 promotes hematoma resolution, attenuates edema, andimproves neurological function via Axl activation [16, 17].
