Leucocyte-derived extracellular trap formation significantly contributes to Haemonchus contortus larval entrapment

Abstract Background Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) and eosinophil extracellular trap (ETs) formation has recently been described as an important host effector mechanism against invading pathogens. So far, scarce evidence on metazoan-triggered ET formation has been published. We here describe for...
