NETs: an extracellular DNA network structure with implication for cardiovascular disease and cancer
2024
Overview
Cardiovascular (CV) diseases and tumors are best known for its high morbidity and mortality worldwide. There is a growing recognition of the association between CV diseases and tumorigenesis. In addition to CV damage caused by anti-tumor drugs and tumor-induced organ dysfunction, CV events themselves and their treatment may also have a role in promoting tumorigenesis. Therefore, Therefore, the diagnosis and treatment of the two kinds of diseases have entered the era of clinical convergence. Emerging evidence indicates significant biologic overlap between cancer and CV diseases, with the recognition of shared biologic mechanisms. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) represent an immune mechanism of neutrophils promoting the development of tumors and their metastasis. It has been recently demonstrated that NETs exist in various stages of hypertension and heart failure, exacerbating disease progression. At present, most studies focus on the biological role of NETs in CV diseases and tumor respectively, and there are relatively few studies on the specific regulatory mechanisms and effects of NETs in cardiovascular diseases associated with tumors. In this narrative review, we summarize some recent basic and clinical findings on how NETs are involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases associated with tumors. We also highlight that the development of treatments targeting NETs may be one of the effective ways to prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases associated with tumors.
