1 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory condition that is typified by the deposition of lipids and the subsequent inflammation of medium and large arteries. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are fibrous meshworks of DNA, histones, and granzymes expelled by activated neutrophils in response to a variety of pathogenic conditions.
