NETosis and thrombosis in vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia

The mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) remain unclear. Here the authors show that anti-PF4 antibodies are responsible for the activation of platelets and neutrophils, and blockage of FcγRIIa or NETosis in vivo can prevent thrombosis.
