Formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps under Low Oxygen Level
Since their discovery, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been characterized as a fundamental host innate immune defense mechanism. Conversely, excessive NET-release may have a variety of detrimental consequences for the host. A fine balance between NET formation and elimination is necessary to sustain a protective effect during an infectious challenge. Our own recently published data r...
متن کاملNeutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) - formation and implications.
Neutrophils are cells of the immune system which freely circulate in blood vessels and are recruited to the inflammation sites when the human organism responds to microbial infections. One of the mechanisms of neutrophil action is the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) The process of NET generation, called netosis, is a specific type of cell death, different from necrosis and ap...
متن کاملNeutrophil extracellular traps
Cancers prime neutrophils to release extracellular DNA traps through the systemic release of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). We recently showed that these circulating neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) promote the establishment of a pro-thrombotic state. The role of NETs in cancer biology and tumor progression may prove much more than an unfortunate side effect of cancer.

Coming soon to a doctor’s surgery near you? Hopes placed on the sequencing of ‘the’ human genome and the subsequent identification of many single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have turned out to be misguided, as the causes of common diseases like cancer and heart disease have proven too complex to be addressed with simple SNP searches. Also, large-scale genomic differences like copy number va...
متن کاملThe Impact of Various Reactive Oxygen Species on the Formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps
The formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) depends on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Previous studies revealed that both NADPH oxidase and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are required for NET release. However, the contribution of various ROS as well as the role of mitochondria-derived ROS has not been addressed so far. In the present study we aimed to investigate in a system...
