Mast Cell Tryptase Potentiates Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation [PDF]
Journal of Innate Immunity, 2021 Previous research has indicated an intimate functional communication between mast cells (MCs) and neutrophils during inflammatory conditions, but the nature of such communication is not fully understood.

Histone Acetylation Promotes Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2019 Neutrophils undergo a unique form of cell death to generate neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). It is well established that citrullination of histones (e.g., CitH3) facilitates chromatin decondensation during NET formation (NETosis), particularly ...

Impaired neutrophil extracellular trap formation in β-thalassaemia/HbE [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Neutrophil dysfunction contributes to a high susceptibility to severe bacterial infection which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in β-thalassaemia/HbE, especially in splenectomised patients.

Influence of iron- and zinc-chelating agents on neutrophil extracellular trap formation
Central European Journal of Immunology, 2021 Release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is one of the neutrophils’ mechanisms involved in the response to infection. NETs are released from the cell in response to a biological or synthetic stimulus to entrap, immobilize and kill pathogens ...
