The antagonistic effect of Se on the Pb-weakening formation of neutrophil extracellular traps in chicken neutrophils

Neutrophils represent an important part of the body's innate immunity and can resist the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of lead (Pb) on the release of NETs, the antagonism of selenium (Se) on Pb toxicity and the potential molecular mechanisms. Our model was an in vitro exposure model for the addition of Se, Pb or both in the culture medium...
