additional information | generation of MMP-8 knockout mutant mice. In contrast to septic adult mice, genetic ablation of MMP8 increases mortality following bacterial peritonitis in juvenile mice. This increase in mortality is associated with rexadduced bacterial clearance and reduced NET efficiency. Juvenile MMP8 null mice have greater mortality and higher bacterial burden than wild-type mice.

malfunction | juvenile MMP8 null mice have greater mortality and higher bacterial burden than wild-type mice. Leukocyte counts and cytokine concentrations in the peritoneal fluid are increased in the MMP8 null mice relative to the wild-type mice. Peritoneal macrophages from MMP8 null mice have reduced phagocytic capacity compared to wild-type macrophages. There is no quantitative difference in NET formation, but fewer bacteria are adherent to NETs from MMP8 null animals | Mus musculus |
