Abstract Brain endothelial cell (bEC) dysfunction is the main factor of blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, which triggers a vicious cycle aggravating traumatic brain injury (TBI) pathogenesis. Previous studies have revealed that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) released by neutrophils can lead to BBB disruption, but there lack research on underlying mechanisms after TBI. Here, excessive NETs were found in both contused tissue and circulation following We could activate TLR4/NF-κB pathway induce bEC pyroptosis, led disruption During this process, ninjurin-1 (NINJ1) was activated pyroptotic bECs, it mediated release high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) via plasma membrane rupture (PMR) promote NET formation.

Neuroinflammation is one of the most important pathogeneses in secondary brain injury after traumatic (TBI). Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) forming neutrophils were found throughout tissue TBI patients and elevated plasma NET biomarkers correlated with worse outcomes. However, biological function underlying mechanisms NETs TBI-induced neural damage are not yet fully understood.

Platelets are well characterized for their indispensable role in primary hemostasis to control hemorrhage. Research over the past years has provided a substantial body of evidence demonstrating that platelets also participate host innate immunity. The surface expression pattern recognition receptors, such as TLR2 and TLR4, provides with ability sense bacterial products environment. Platelet α-granules contain microbicidal proteins, chemokines growth factors, which upon release may directly engage pathogens and/or contribute inflammatory signaling. Additionally, platelet interactions neutrophils enhance neutrophil activation often crucial induce sufficient immune response. In particular, can activate form extracellular traps (NETs). This specific effector function is by expelling chromatin fibres decorated histones antimicrobial proteins into space where they serve trap kill pathogens. Until now, mechanisms signaling pathways between inducing NET formation still not fully characterized. NETs were detected thrombotic lesions several disease backgrounds, pointing towards an interface neutrophils, thrombosis, known immunothrombosis. negatively charged DNA within procoagulant surface, particular NET-derived platelets. light current COVID-19 pandemic, topic immunothrombosis become more relevant than ever, majority patients display thrombi lung capillaries other vascular beds.

COVID-19 patients have a high incidence of thrombosis, and thromboembolic complications are associated with severe mortality. disease is hyper-inflammatory response (cytokine storm) mediated by the immune system. However, role inflammatory in thrombosis remains incompletely understood. In this review, we investigate crosstalk between inflammation context COVID-19, focusing on contributions to pathogenesis propose combined use anti-inflammatory anticoagulant therapeutics. Under conditions, interactions neutrophils platelets, platelet activation, monocyte tissue factor expression, microparticle release, phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization as well complement activation collectively involved immune-thrombosis. Inflammation results apoptosis blood cells, leading release PS cells microparticles, which significantly enhances catalytic efficiency tenase prothrombinase complexes, promotes thrombin-mediated fibrin generation local clot formation. Given risk importance antithrombotic therapies has been generally recognized, but certain deficiencies treatment gaps remain. Antiplatelet drugs not combination treatments, thus fail dampen procoagulant activity. Current treatments also do an optimal time for anticoagulation. The efficacy depends therapy initiation. best early possible after diagnosis, ideally stage disease.
