Lipid chlorination mobilizes Neutrophil Elastase to initiate NETosis
2026-07-11
Abstract excerpt
Neutrophils are the first cells recruited to sites of infection, where they contain and kill pathogens through phagocytosis, degranulation, and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) - web-like structures of decondensed chromatin that trap and destroy microbes. NET formation is essential for host defense, but when dysregulated it also contributes to disease, including sepsis, autoimmunity, and thromb...
