DESCRIPTION:Neutrophils are a key component of the environment in cancer. 
 Usually these cells patrol the body and clear pathogens. In cancer\, neutr
 ophils transform and in fact help the cancer to grow. We have identified o
 ne of the mechanisms by which neutrophils are able to facilitate cancer gr
 owth is through the release of web-like structures called extracellular tr
 aps. These traps exert an effect on other components of the local environm
 ent in the cancer. We are now targeting extracellular trap release as a no
 vel cancer therapy.
