Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are web-like structures composed of DNA, histones, and granule proteins released by neutrophils. They play an important role in innate immunity against pathogenic bacteria. Recent studies have shown that NETs are also involved in the progression of sterile inflammation and have been implicated in the development of cancer, particularly metastasis. Targeting NETs may be a promising treatment strategy for various types of cancer.
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are web-like structures derived from neutrophils, which typically consist of DNA, released from the nucleus or mitochondria, and decorated with histones and granule proteins. They are well known as an important structure in innate immunity to eliminate pathogenic bacteria, similar to neutrophils. Initially, NETs are reported to take part in the progression of inflammatory diseases; now, they have also been implicated in the progression of sterile inflammation such as autoimmune disease, diabetes, and cancer. In this review, we will describe the recent studies which have investigated the role of NETs in the development of cancer, especially metastasis. We also prescribe the strategies for targeting NETs in the multiple cancer types, which suggest that NETs are a promising treatment for cancer patients.
