Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in the Autoimmunity Context
The formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is a strategy utilized by neutrophils for capturing infective agents.Extracellular traps consist in a physical net made of DNA and intracellular proteins externalized from neutrophils, where bacteria and viruses are entrapped and killed by proteolysis.A complex series of events contributes to a
