Genetic variations in A20 DUB domain provide a genetic link to citrullination and neutrophil extracellular traps in systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objectives: Genetic variations in TNFAIP3 (A20) de-ubiquitinase (DUB) domain increase the risk of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis.

Neutrophil extracellular trap formation and nuclease activity in septic patients

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2020
Background There is little knowledge, whether in patients with sepsis neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation and NET degrading nuclease activity are altered.

Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation Is Independent of De Novo Gene Expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Neutrophils are essential innate immune cells whose responses are crucial in the clearance of invading pathogens. Neutrophils can respond to infection by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).

Besnoitia besnoiti-induced neutrophil clustering and neutrophil extracellular trap formation depend on P2X1 purinergic receptor signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Bovine besnoitiosis is a re-emerging cattle disease caused by the cyst-forming apicomplexan parasite Besnoitia besnoiti. Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation represents an efficient innate immune mechanism of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN ...

Neutrophil stimulation with citrullinated histone H4 slows down calcium influx and reduces NET formation compared with native histone H4.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) catalyzes posttranslational modification of many target proteins through converting protein arginine or mono-methylarginine to citrulline.

Wolbachia endosymbionts induce neutrophil extracellular trap formation in human onchocerciasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The endosymbiotic bacteria, Wolbachia, induce neutrophilic responses to the human helminth pathogen Onchocerca volvulus. The formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs), has been implicated in anti-microbial defence, but has not been identified in

Aging‐related Atg5 defect impairs neutrophil extracellular traps formation [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2017
SummaryFormation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is an important function of the innate immune system against infections. It has been proven that aging dysregulates immunity and impairs neutrophil function. However, the influence of aging on the ability to produce NETs has yet to be fully addressed. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that

In vitro Demonstration and Quantification of Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
In the recent decade, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been identified and confirmed as a new anti-microbial weapon of neutrophils. In this protocol, we describe easy methods to demonstrate NET formation by immunofluorescence staining of ...

P6396LDL cholesterol promotes neutrophil extracellular trap formation

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2019
Abstract Background Pro-protein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) is a regulator of low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (LDLR) expression and has gained attention in the treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Targeting the tumor microenvironment in colorectal peritoneal metastases

open access: yes, 2020
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) occurs in approximately one in four colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. The pathophysiology of colorectal PM remains poorly characterized. Also, the efficacy of current treatment modalities, including surgery and intraperitoneal (
