Antibody-modified DNase I micelles specifically recognize the neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and promote their degradation
Journal of Controlled Release, 2023•Elsevier
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are structures consisting of decondensed chromatin
with associated proteins, including histones and antimicrobial peptides, released from
activated neutrophils. They are believed to be one of the body's first lines of defense against
infectious agents. Despite their beneficial effect on the immune response process, some
studies indicate that their excessive formation and the associated accumulation of
extracellular DNA (eDNA) together with other polyelectrolytes (F-actin) plays an important …

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are structures consisting of decondensed chromatin with associated proteins, including histones and antimicrobial peptides, released from activated neutrophils. They are believed to be one of the body's first lines of defense against infectious agents. Despite their beneficial effect on the immune response process, some studies indicate that their excessive formation and the associated accumulation of extracellular DNA (eDNA) together with other polyelectrolytes (F-actin) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Thus NETs formation and removal are clinically significant. The monoclonal antibody 2C5 has strong specificity for intact nucleohistones (NS) and targets NS in NETs as we previously confirmed. Creation of a nano preparation that can specifically recognize and destroy NETs represents the aim for treatment many diseases. 2C5 antibody functionalized micelles coated with DNase I were created to achieve this aim.
