Fig. 5: Hydrogel loaded with DNase I degrades NETs in vivo.

Representative immunofluorescence images showing the presence of NETs in the surgical region 3 days post-laminectomy. NETs were stained with Cit-Histone3 (pseudored) and MPO (pseudogreen), while nuclei were stained with DAPI (pseudoblue). Hydrogel alone (G), DNase I alone (D), hydrogel loaded with DNase I (DG).
