From a dirty breath to atherosclerosis: Ozone pollution and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)

Edoxaban Improved End-QRS Notches and Early Repolarizations

“…Recently, ozon contamination was reported to be associated with atherosclerosis via NET production [11]. The mechanisms underlying the linkage between air pollution and arteries are poorly understood.…”

“…Additionally, PVTs can release small particles, such as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NETs are known to be associated with many diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) [10], atherosclerosis [11], acute coronary infarction [12], and heart failure [13].…”
