Abstract
The release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) can be either beneficial or detrimental for the host, thus it is necessary to maintain a balance between formation and clearance of NETs. Multiple physiological factors eliciting NET release have been identified, yet the studies on natural signals limiting NET formation have been scarce. Accordingly, our aim was to analyze whether cytokines or immune cells can inhibit NET formation. To that end, human granulocytes were incubated with interleukin (IL)-4, IL-10, transforming growth factor beta-2 or adenosine and then stimulated to release NETs. Additionally, neutrophils were cultured in the presence of natural killer (NK) cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory macrophages (M1 or M2 macrophages), or in the presence of NK/Tregs/M1 macrophages or M2 macrophages-conditioned medium and subsequently stimulated to release NETs. Our studies showed that secretome of M1 and M2 macrophages, but not of NK cells and Tregs, diminishes NET formation. Co-culture experiments did not reveal any effect of immune cells on NET release. No effect of cytokines or adenosine on NET release was found. This study highlights the importance of paracrine signaling at the site of infection and is the first to show that macrophage secretome can regulate NET formation.
