Histone hypercitrullination mediates chromatin decondensation and neutrophil extracellular trap formation

Journal of Cell Biology, 2009
Peripheral blood neutrophils form highly decondensed chromatin structures, termed neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), that have been implicated in innate immune response to bacterial infection.

PEGylation of Metal Oxide Nanoparticles Modulates Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

Biosensors, 2022
Novel metal oxide nanoparticle (NP) contrast agents may offer safety and functionality advantages over conventional gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) for cancer diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging.

Reduced Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation During Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in C3 KO Mice: C3 Requirement for NETs Release

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Complement C3 plays a prominent role in inflammatory processes, and its increase exacerbates ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI)-induced acute kidney injury (AKI).

Nucleosomes and neutrophil extracellular traps in septic and burn patients [PDF]

, 2017
NETosis is a host defense mechanism associated with inflammation and tissue damage. Experimental models show that platelets and von Willebrand factor (VWF) are key elements for intravascular NETosis. We determined NETosis in septic and burn patients at 1

Molecular Prerequisites for Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation and Evasion Mechanisms of Staphylococcus aureus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
NETosis is a multi-facetted cellular process that promotes the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NETs as web-like structures consist of DNA fibers armed with granular proteins, histones, and microbicidal peptides, thereby exhibiting ...

Influences of chloride and hypochlorite on neutrophil extracellular trap formation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The release by neutrophils of DNA-based extracellular traps (NETs) is a recently recognized innate immune phenomenon that contributes significantly to control of bacterial pathogens at tissue foci of infection.

Gastropod-derived haemocyte extracellular traps entrap metastrongyloid larval stages of Angiostrongylus vasorum, Aelurostrongylus abstrusus and Troglostrongylus brevior [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Phagocyte-derived extracellular traps (ETs) were recently demonstrated mainly in vertebrate hosts as an important effector mechanism against invading parasites.

Platelets: New bricks in the building of neutrophil extracellular traps [PDF]

, 2016
In addition to being key elements in hemostasis and thrombosis, platelets have an important role in the inflammatory and innate immune response. This activity is associated with their capability to recognize pathogens through the expression of toll-like ...

Roles of selenoprotein S in reactive oxygen species-dependent neutrophil extracellular trap formation induced by selenium-deficient arteritis

Redox Biology, 2021
Selenium (Se) deficiency and poor plasma Se levels can cause cardiovascular diseases by decreasing selenoprotein levels. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) may be the vicious cycle center of inflammation in vasculitis. Here, we show that Se deficiency
