Neutrophil extracellular traps in homeostasis and disease

扫码查看
Neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs),crucial in immune defense mechanisms,are renowned for their propensity to expel decondensed chromatin embedded with inflammatory proteins.Our comprehension of NETs in pathogen clearance,immune regulation and disease pathogenesis,has grown significantly in recent years.NETs are not only pivotal in the context of infections but also exhibit significant involvement in sterile inflammation.Evidence suggests that excessive accumulation of NETs can result in vessel occlusion,tissue damage,and prolonged inflammatory responses,thereby contributing to the progression and exacerbation of various pathological states.Nevertheless,NETs exhibit dual functionalities in certain pathological contexts.While NETs may act as autoantigens,aggregated NET complexes can function as inflammatory mediators by degrading proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines.The delineation of molecules and signaling pathways governing NET formation aids in refining our appreciation of NETs'role in immune homeostasis,inflammation,autoimmune diseases,metabolic dysregulation,and cancer.In this comprehensive review,we delve into the multifaceted roles of NETs in both homeostasis and disease,whilst discussing their potential as therapeutic targets.Our aim is to enhance the understanding of the intricate functions of NETs across the spectrum from physiology to pathology.
