Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), discovered in 2004, are key in immunity but also contribute to tissue damage and thrombosis.
Research reveals how NETs interact with the hemostatic system, influencing clot formation and resolution.
Peptidyl-arginine-deiminase (PAD) enzymes, central to NET formation, also link to coagulation pathways.
These insights connect NETs to conditions like sepsis and cancer, opening paths for targeted anti-thrombotic therapies.
Discover a lot more insights in this recently published article ”Neutrophil Extracellular Traps: At the Interface of Thrombosis and Comorbidities” by Imre Varjú, Anna Tanka-Salamon and Krasimir Kolev in the Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis.
