Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Affecting Cardiovascular Health in Infectious and Inflammatory Diseases
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are web-like structures of decondensed extracellular chromatin fibers and neutrophil granule proteins released by neutrophils. NETs participate in host immune defense by entrapping pathogens. They are pro-inflammatory in function, and they act as an initiator of...
