Capability of Neutrophils to Form NETs Is Not Directly Influenced by a CMA-Targeting Peptide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
During inflammatory reaction, neutrophils exhibit numerous cellular and immunological functions, notably the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and autophagy.

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).

Neutrophil extracellular traps are associated with disease severity and microbiota diversity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been observed in the airway in COPD, but their clinical and pathophysiological implications have not been defined.OBJECTIVE: To determine if NETs are associated with disease severity in COPD, and how

Substrate stiffness induces neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation through focal adhesion kinase activation.

open access: yesBiomaterials, 2021
Neutrophils predominate the early inflammatory response to tissue injury and implantation of biomaterials. Recent studies have shown that neutrophil activation can be regulated by mechanical cues such as stiffness or surface wettability; however, it is ...

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 ...

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 ...

Does NETosis Contribute to the Bacterial Pathoadaptation in Cystic Fibrosis? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Significant advances in our understanding of neutrophil biology were made in the past several years. The exciting discovery that neutrophils deploy neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to catch pathogens paved the way for a series of additional studies ...

Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation Correlates with Favorable Overall Survival in High Grade Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesCancers, 2020
It is still a question of debate whether neutrophils, often found in the tumor microenvironment, mediate tumor-promoting or rather tumor-inhibiting activities.

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.

Novel Role of IL (Interleukin)-1&bgr; in Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2018
Objective— Neutrophils promote experimental abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation via a mechanism that is independent from MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases).
