Mouse studies that investigated the contribution of neutrophils and NETs to venous thrombosis

ReferenceMouse typeCancer cell typeTumor siteThrombosis modelObservation
41 BALB/c 4T1 SC NA Increased neutrophil count 
39 BALB/c 4T1 Orthotopic NA Increased neutrophil count and percentage of H3Cit high neutrophils. Increased NET formation after PAF stimulation 
39 C57BL/6 LLC SC NA Increased neutrophil count. Increased NET formation after PAF stimulation 
42 BALB/c 4T1 Orthotopic Rose Bengal jugular vein Shortened time to occlusion. DNAse I reduced thrombosis in tumor-bearing mice 
43 Nude BxPc-3 Orthotopic IVC stasis Increased neutrophil count and plasma H3Cit, increased H3Cit in thrombus, reduced thrombus weight after neutrophil depletion or DNAse I treatment
