TLDR
In a mouse model of allergic airway hypersensitivity, it is shown that rhinovirus infection triggers dsDNA release associated with the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), known as NETosis, which contribute to the pathogenesis and may represent potential therapeutic targets of rhinOVirus-induced asthma exacerbations.Abstract:
Respiratory viral infections represent the most common cause of allergic asthma exacerbations. Amplification of the type-2 immune response is strongly implicated in asthma exacerbation, but how virus infection boosts type-2 responses is poorly understood. We report a significant correlation between the release of host double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) following rhinovirus infection and the exacerbation of type-2 allergic inflammation in humans. In a mouse model of allergic airway hypersensitivity, we show that rhinovirus infection triggers dsDNA release associated with the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), known as NETosis. We further demonstrate that inhibiting NETosis by blocking neutrophil elastase or by degrading NETs with DNase protects mice from type-2 immunopathology. Furthermore, the injection of mouse genomic DNA alone is sufficient to recapitulate many features of rhinovirus-induced type-2 immune responses and asthma pathology. Thus, NETosis and its associated extracellular dsDNA contribute to the pathogenesis and may represent potential therapeutic targets of rhinovirus-induced asthma exacerbations.read more

Neutrophil ghosts worsen asthma.
TL;DR: Neutrophil cytoplasts are linked to amplification of T helper 17–mediated inflammation and severe asthma and should be investigated further for their role in inflammation and asthma.

Inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase can reduce extracellular traps from neutrophils in asthmatic children in vitro.
TL;DR: This study aimed to explore the link between neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and childhood asthma, to investigate the ability of nitric oxide (NO) to induce NETs in asthmatic children and find inhibitors to reduceNETs in the NO synthesis pathway.

TL;DR: A mouse model has further demonstrated that virus-induced mucous metaplasia and ILC2 expansion are suppressed by antagonizing or deleting IL-33, IL-25, or TSLP, and IFNs or TLR agonists could become innovative treatments for virus- induced asthma exacerbation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used DNase I treatment to disrupt neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and then assessed glymphatic function by cisterna magna injections of CSF tracers in a rat model of S. pneumoniae meningitis.

TL;DR: It is described that, upon activation, neutrophils release granule proteins and chromatin that together form extracellular fibers that bind Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, which degrade virulence factors and kill bacteria.

TL;DR: The data uncover a fundamental role of an endogenous antimicrobial peptide in breaking innate tolerance to self-DNA and suggest that this pathway may drive autoimmunity in psoriasis.
