Novel cell death program leads to neutrophil extracellular traps

TA Fuchs, U Abed, C Goosmann, R Hurwitz… - The Journal of cell …, 2007 - rupress.org
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are extracellular structures composed of chromatin
and granule proteins that bind and kill microorganisms. We show that upon stimulation, the …

Extracellular DNA traps promote thrombosis

TA Fuchs, A Brill, D Duerschmied… - Proceedings of the …, 2010 - National Acad Sciences
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are part of the innate immune response to infections.
NETs are a meshwork of DNA fibers comprising histones and antimicrobial proteins. Microbes …

Cancers predispose neutrophils to release extracellular DNA traps that contribute to cancer-associated thrombosis

…, K Martinod, JR Voorhees, TA Fuchs… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
Cancer-associated thrombosis often lacks a clear etiology. However, it is linked to a poor
prognosis and represents the second-leading cause of death in cancer patients. Recent …

Myeloperoxidase is required for neutrophil extracellular trap formation: implications for innate immunity

KD Metzler, TA Fuchs, WM Nauseef… - Blood, The Journal …, 2011 - ashpublications.org
The granule enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) plays an important role in neutrophil antimicrobial
responses. However, the severity of immunodeficiency in patients carrying mutations in …

Activation of the Raf-MEK-ERK pathway is required for neutrophil extracellular trap formation

A Hakkim, TA Fuchs, NE Martinez, S Hess… - Nature chemical …, 2011 - nature.com
The signaling mechanisms leading to the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs),
relevant in infections, sepsis and autoimmune diseases, are poorly understood. Neutrophils …

Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) impact on deep vein thrombosis

TA Fuchs, A Brill, DD Wagner - Arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and …, 2012 - Am Heart Assoc
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a major health problem that requires improved prophylaxis
and treatment. Inflammatory conditions such as infection, cancer, and autoimmune diseases …

Neutrophil histone modification by peptidylarginine deiminase 4 is critical for deep vein thrombosis in mice

K Martinod, M Demers, TA Fuchs… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are major health problems associated with
high mortality. Recently, DNA-based neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) resulting from the …

Host DNases prevent vascular occlusion by neutrophil extracellular traps

…, D Kitamura, M Herrmann, M Napirei, TA Fuchs - Science, 2017 - science.org
Platelet and fibrin clots occlude blood vessels in hemostasis and thrombosis. Here we report
a noncanonical mechanism for vascular occlusion based on neutrophil extracellular traps (…

von Willebrand factor–mediated platelet adhesion is critical for deep vein thrombosis in mouse models

A Brill, TA Fuchs, AK Chauhan, JJ Yang… - Blood, The Journal …, 2011 - ashpublications.org
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and its complication, pulmonary embolism, are frequent causes
of disability and mortality. Although blood flow disturbance is considered an important …

Histones induce rapid and profound thrombocytopenia in mice

TA Fuchs, AA Bhandari… - Blood, The Journal of the …, 2011 - ashpublications.org
Histones are released from dying cells and contribute to antimicrobial defense during infection.
However, extracellular histones are a double-edged sword because they also damage …
