摘要

Neutrophils release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) as part of a healthy host immune response. NETs physically trap and kill pathogens as well as activating and facilitating crosstalk between immune cells and complement. Excessive or inadequately resolved NETs are implicated in the underlying pathophysiology of sepsis and other inflammatory diseases, including amplification of the inflammatory response and inducing thrombotic complications. Here, we review the growing evidence implicating neutrophils and NETs as central players in the dysregulated host immune response. We discuss potential strategies for modifying NETs to improve patient outcomes and the need for careful patient selection.
