How Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Become Visible [PDF]
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been identified as a fundamental innate immune defense mechanism against different pathogens. NETs are characterized as released nuclear DNA associated with histones and granule proteins, which form an ...

Neutrophil extracellular traps characterize caseating granulomas
Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide and still poses a serious challenge to public health. Recent attention to neutrophils has uncovered unexplored areas demanding further investigation.

Neutrophil extracellular traps impair regeneration [PDF]
Abstract Fibrosis is a major health burden across diseases and organs. To remedy this, we study wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis (WIHN) as a model of non‐fibrotic healing that recapitulates embryogenesis for de novo hair follicle morphogenesis after wounding.

Neutrophil extracellular traps [PDF]
What are neutrophil extracellular traps, or NETs? Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in humans, are the first line of defense against invading pathogens. They employ a wide array of anti-microbial strategies, most notably phagocytosis, to attack and eliminate pathogens.

Phagocytosis and neutrophil extracellular traps [PDF]
Neutrophils are recruited rapidly to sites of infection in response to host- and/or microbe-derived proinflammatory molecules. At such sites, neutrophils phagocytose microbes and are activated to produce superoxide and other reactive oxygen species (ROS). In addition, neutrophils contain stores of antimicrobial peptides and enzymes that work in concert

Targeting potential drivers of COVID-19: Neutrophil extracellular traps
In this Perspective, autopsy results and literature are presented supporting the hypothesis that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) may contribute to organ damage and mortality in COVID-19.

Neutrophil Extracellular Trap-Driven Occlusive Diseases [PDF]
The enlightenment of the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) as a part of the innate immune system shed new insights into the pathologies of various diseases. The initial idea that NETs are a pivotal defense structure was gradually amended due to several deleterious effects in consecutive investigations.
