Platelet CXCL4 mediates neutrophil extracellular traps formation in ANCA-associated vasculitis
Abstract Neutrophils form neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which are involved in the pathogenesis of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). Recent reports suggest that platelets stimulated via toll-like receptor (TLR) pathways can induce NETs formation. However, the mechanism underlying the involve...
