Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Induced by Shiga Toxin and Lipopolysaccharide-Treated Platelets Exacerbate Endothelial Cell Damage

Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is the most common cause of acute renal failure in the pediatric population. The etiology of HUS is linked to Gram-negative, Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing enterohemorrhagic bacterial infections. While the effect of Stx is focused on endothelial damage of renal glomerulu...
