Journal Article
Activation of the Raf-MEK-ERK pathway is required for neutrophil extracellular trap formation
2011
Overview
A chemical genetics approach identifies the Raf-MEK-ERK signaling system downstream of PKC in formation of the antimicrobial cell structures called neutrophil extracellular traps.
The signaling mechanisms leading to the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), relevant in infections, sepsis and autoimmune diseases, are poorly understood. Neutrophils are not amenable to studies with conventional genetic techniques. Using a new chemical genetic analysis we show that the Raf-MEK-ERK pathway is involved in NET formation through activation of NADPH oxidase and upregulation of antiapoptotic proteins. We identify potential targets for drugs addressing NET-associated diseases.
