Abstract
The mechanisms by which stroke and myocardial infarction trigger lymphocyte loss remain poorly defined. This study shows that the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) after stroke and myocardial infarction triggers B cell apoptosis and reduces the number of IgA-producing plasma cells. Therapeutic targeting of NETs is immunoprotective in mice and humans.
