Abstract

Objective Evidence has demonstrated that the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation mediated by neutrophil plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In this study, we aimed to investigate whether reduced glutathione (GSH) could decrease the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) or inhibit NETs formation.  Methods Neutrophils were isolated from peripheral blood of SLE patients by gradient centrifugation method dextran sedimentation and centrifugation, and then were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). The production of intracellular ROS and the formation of NETs were examined.   Results   Compared with the PMA group treated with PMA, the group preprocessing with GSH could markedly suppress formation of NET by neutrophils from SLE patients. Moreover, the production of intracellular ROS production was significantly decreased in GSH-treated neutrophils from SLE patients. Conclusion GSH can significantly inhibit the process of neutrophils' NETosis from SLE patients through modulating the intracellular ROS production. These results indicates that GSH might be a potential therapeutic agent for SLE.
