DNA structures decorated with cathepsin G/secretory leukocyte proteinase inhibitor stimulate IFNI production by plasmacytoid dendritic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and neutrophils are detected in psoriatic skin lesions and implicated in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. pDCs specialize in the production of type I interferon (IFNI), a cytokine that plays an important role in chronic ...

Mycoplasma lipoproteins are major determinants of neutrophil extracellular trap formation.

open access: yesCellular microbiology, 2016
Neutrophil granulocytes are paramount to innate responses as major effectors of acute inflammation. Among the various strategies enacted by neutrophils to eliminate microbes NETosis is a novel distinct antimicrobial activity in which an interlacement of chromatin fibres rich in granule-derived antimicrobial peptides and enzymes is extruded (NETs ...

Increased Neutrophil Extracellular Trap-Mediated Staphylococcus aureus Clearance Through Inhibition of Nuclease Activity by Clindamycin and Immunoglobulin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Gram-positive human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus causes a variety of human diseases such as skin infections, pneumonia, and endocarditis. The micrococcal nuclease Nuc1 is one of the major S.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps: Formation and Involvement in Disease Progression.

open access: yesIranian journal of allergy, asthma, and immunology, 2018
Neutrophils are the forerunner in innate immunity by defending the host organisms against infectious pathogens. During such process, neutrophils reach the site of inflammation/infection and eliminate the pathogens by phagocytosis as well as by forming the neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).

Lead-induced actin polymerization aggravates neutrophil extracellular trap formation and contributes to vascular inflammation

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Lead (Pb) exposure is widely acknowledged as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies have established neutrophil involvement in Pb-induced cardiovascular injuries; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Celastrol inhibits the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps

open access: yesJournal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2013
N are the most abundant leukocytes and provide the front line of defense against invading pathogens. However, neutrophils also contribute to the development of autoimmune diseases. Recent studies suggest that neutrophils and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play an active role in driving the autoimmunity and tissue injury in vasculitis, systemic ...
