Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Facilitate A549 Cell Invasion and Migration in a Macrophage-Maintained Inflammatory Microenvironment

Neutrophil infiltration and NET formation exist in lung cancer tissues. (a) Neutrophil infiltration and (b) structure of NETs were demonstrated in postoperation pathological tissues from lung cancer patients. In situ structures of NETs in lung cancer tissues were detected as DAPI, neutrophil elastase (NE), and citrullinated histone-3 (citH3) colocalization. (c) The level of plasma MPO–DNA complexes in lung cancer patients and healthy controls. .
