Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

SIRPA is an inhibitory immunoreceptor on myeloid cells that functions as the principal receptor for CD47, transducing a 'don't eat me' signal that restrains phagocytosis, cytokine production, and integrin-mediated cell activation. CD47 engagement repositions SIRPA to the phagocytic synapse where its cytoplasmic ITIM tyrosines—phosphorylated by Src-family kinases, FAK, or JAK2 downstream of integrins, growth factors, or TLRs—recruit SHP-1 and SHP-2 phosphatases that inhibit inside-out integrin activation, suppress NF-κB-dependent inflammatory cytokine release, and modulate Rho/Rac-dependent cytoskeletal reorganization and cell migration (PMID:32768386, PMID:18233962, PMID:9582366, PMID:11118207). Beyond phagocytosis inhibition, SIRPA scaffolds adhesion-regulated signaling complexes containing SKAP55hom/R, FYB/SLAP-130, and PYK2, and channels growth-factor signals through SHP-2 to MAP kinase, PI3K/Akt, and PDK1 pathways that regulate cell survival and proliferation (PMID:10469599, PMID:9535915, PMID:20643654). SIRPA also operates in non-immune contexts: it localizes to neuronal synapses in a CD47-dependent manner, marks committed cardiomyocytes derived from human pluripotent stem cells, and mediates CD47-dependent osteoclast fusion (PMID:10602092, PMID:22020386, PMID:21638321).
