COVID-19 Pathology Sheds New Light on Balance between Neutrophil Proteases and Their Inhibitors
2022-11-24
Abstract excerpt
Excessive neutrophil influx and activation in lungs during infections, such as manifest during the ongoing SARS CoV-2 pandemic, have brought neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and the con-comitant release of granule contents that damage surrounding tissues into sharp focus. Neutro-phil proteases, which are known to participate in NET release, also enable the binding of the viral spike protein to cellular recept...
