Coagulation and immunity: Caught in the fibrin web

Abstract

In this issue of Immunity, Vega-Pérez et al. (2021) reveal the formation of a dynamic multicellular aggregate within a fibrin scaffold consisting of large peritoneal macrophages, B1 cells, neutrophils, and monocytes during antibacterial immunity in the peritoneum. Anticoagulants targeting thrombin or peritoneal macrophage depletion by clodronate impaired efficient control of E. coli infection.
