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

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.

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

Nucleosomes and neutrophil activation in sickle cell disease painful crisis
Activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils play an important role in the pathogenesis of vaso-occlusive painful sickle cell crisis. Upon activation, polymorphonuclear neutrophils can form neutrophil extracellular traps.

Triptolide inhibits neutrophil extracellular trap formation [PDF]
Triptolide (PG490), as a triterpene dicyclic oxide has been reported to increase the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) and induce apoptosis of RAW 264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The activity of death NETs plays an important role in anti-bacterial processes in the human body.

Gastropod-derived haemocyte extracellular traps entrap metastrongyloid larval stages of Angiostrongylus vasorum, Aelurostrongylus abstrusus and Troglostrongylus brevior [PDF]
Background: Phagocyte-derived extracellular traps (ETs) were recently demonstrated mainly in vertebrate hosts as an important effector mechanism against invading parasites.
