NET composition of DNA and the body's own LL37 differed between biochemical and microbial stimuli despite similar NET morphology.
In plain wordsIn lab tests, the amount of the body's own LL37 in neutrophil traps differed depending on what triggered them.

The results showed a differential composition of DNA and the antimicrobial peptide cathelicidin (LL37) and a variable enzymatic activity (neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G, myeloperoxidase) induced by the different stimuli despite showing morphologically similar NETs.

to evaluate structural and enzymatic divergences in NET composition induced by biochemical (phorbol myristate acetate [PMA] and hypochlorous acid [HOCl]) and microbiologic (Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) stimuli, along with the presence of plasma from healthy do…
This result measures the body's own LL-37. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
