Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Mediate <i>In Vitro</i> and <i>In Vivo</i> Degradation of α-Synuclein Amyloid Fibrils
2025-09-29
Abstract excerpt
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are chromatin-derived structures decorated with neutrophil enzymes such as elastase and myeloperoxidase. Our group has previously demonstrated that amyloid fibrils (AFs), regardless of their protein composition, induce NET release in vitro in human neutrophils through a process dependent on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX-2). Moreover, the pro...
