Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Generated by Low Density Neutrophils Obtained from Peritoneal Lavage Fluid Mediate Tumor Cell Growth and Attachment

Here, we present a method in which human low-density neutrophils (LDN), recovered from postoperative peritoneal lavage fluid, produce massive neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and efficiently trap free tumor cells that subsequently...

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps: How to Generate and Visualize Them

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are an important innate immune mechanism to fight pathogenic bacteria, fungi and parasites. Here we describe methods to isolate neutrophil granulocytes from human blood and to activate them to form NETs. We present preparation techniques to visualize NETs in light and electron...

Induction and Visualization of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Pre-Labeled Neutrophils

This video demonstrates the induction and visualization of neutrophil extracellular traps or NETs in pre-labeled neutrophils using patient serum containing anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies. Furthermore, using an impermeable DNA dye and fluorescence microscopy enables the visualization of...

An In Vitro Technique to Generate Human Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

This video demonstrates an in vitro technique to generate and isolate neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Neutrophils are isolated from peripheral blood and stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) to produce NETs. During incubation, the neutrophils undergo a process of cell death (NETosis) to release NETs comprising decondensed chromatin mixed with granular cytoplasmic...

Methods to Study Lipid Alterations in Neutrophils and the Subsequent Formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

Lipids are known to play an important role in cellular functions. Here, we describe a method to determine the lipid composition of neutrophils, with emphasis on the cholesterol level, by using both HPTLC and HPLC to gain a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of neutrophil extracellular trap...

Simplified Human Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) Isolation and Handling

In the following protocol, we describe a very simple way to isolate Neutrophil Extracellular traps (NETs) from human whole blood using readily available reagents. We then demonstrate how the isolated NETs can be used in an in vitro adhesion assay with cancer...
