Rac2 is Required for Formation of Extracellular Traps in Neutrophils
Recently, it was found that pathogens are trapped and killed by neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). The role of Rac small GTPases is explored in the formation of NET using neutrophils lacking Rac1, Rac2 or both isoforms. NET formation was observed in both wild-type and Rac1-null neutrophils. In c...
