Cervical cancer is a leading cause of death among women globally, primarily driven by high-risk papillomaviruses. However, the effectiveness of chemotherapy is limited, underscoring the potential of p
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 ligand, induces the expression of various genes including proinflammatory cytokines, and the expression is modified by the presence of Zc3h12a. W
Neutrophils are essential innate immune cells whose responses are crucial in the clearance of invading pathogens. Neutrophils can respond to infection by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs
