A case report dysregulated neutrophil extracellular traps in a patient with propylthiouracil-induced anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis

AbstractRationale:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are immune defence systems that release extracellular chromatin and myeloid granules including myeloperoxidase (MPO) to kill pathogens. An experimental animal study recently demonstrated that disordered NETs induced by propylthiouracil (PTU) co
