Transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is required for human FcγRIIIb-induced neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation
Neutrophils (PMN) are the most abundant leukocytes in the blood. PMN migrate from the circulation to sites of infection, where they are responsible for antimicrobial functions.
