Mammary gland epithelial cell-mediated apoptotic cell clearance in vivo. Late apoptotic cells (asterisk) can be seen in the alveolar lumen. An apoptotic cell can be seen within the cytoplasm of a viable epithelial cell (arrowhead) with a rim of clear-appearing extracellular fluid surrounding the apoptotic cell (the spacious phagosome).
