Neutrophils play a key role in immunity and are known to respond to exogenous threats by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) through NETosis, a process involving the release of neutrophils nuclear DNA decorated with proteins into the extracellular space. In this study, attention has been focused on the ability of differently charged molecular systems polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) to induce NETosis.

Abstract

Neutrophils play a key role in immunity and are known to respond to exogenous threats by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) through NETosis, a process involving the release of neutrophils nuclear DNA decorated with proteins into the extracellular space. In this study, attention has been focused on the ability of differently charged molecular systems polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) to induce NETosis.
