Rationale: Pulmonary exacerbations are clinically impactful events that accelerate cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease progression. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying an increased frequency of pulmonary exacerbations have not been explored.
Objectives: To compare host immune response during intravenous antibiotic treatment of pulmonary exacerbations in people with CF who have a history of frequent infrequent exacerbations.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a debilitating chronic disease and the third-leading cause of mortality worldwide. It is characterized by airway neutrophilia, promoting tissue injury through release of toxic mediators and proteases. Recently, it has been shown that neutrophil-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) from lungs of patients with COPD can cause a neutrophil elastase-dependent (NE-dependent) COPD-like disease upon transfer to mouse airways.

Phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells by the macrophages (efferocytosis) is impaired in sepsis, but its mechanism is poorly understood. Extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) is a novel damage-associated molecular pattern that fuels inflammation. We identify that eCIRP-induced neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) impair efferocytosis through a novel mechanism.

Heparin is used extensively as an anticoagulant in a broad range of diseases and procedures; however, its biological effects are not limited to coagulation and remain incompletely understood. Heparin usage can lead to the life-threatening complication known as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), caused by the development of antibodies against heparin/PF4 complexes. Here, we demonstrate the ability of heparin to induce neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).
