Neutrophil extracellular traps released by neutrophils impair revascularization and vascular remodeling after stroke

Following ischemic insult, neovascularization and vascular remodelling play an essential part in the repair of brain damage. Here the authors show that neutrophil extracellular traps serve a detrimental role in the regeneration process, limiting the functional recovery of the brain post injury.
