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.
