Monoclonal antibody 2C5 specifically targets neutrophil extracellular traps

Abstract excerpt

Neutrophils can release DNA and granular cytoplasmic proteins that form smooth filaments of stacked nucleosomes (NS). These structures, called neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), are involved in multiple pathological processes, and NET formation and removal are clinically significant. The monoclonal antibody 2C5 has strong specificity toward intact NS but not to individual NS components, indicating that 2C5...
