Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are matrices composed of DNA and antimicrobial proteins that are released from neutrophils to entrap and degrade pathogens. Overproduction of these biological networks can induce hyperinflammation in infectious diseases and autoimmune disorders and exacerbate cancer metastasis formation. Systemic administration of immunosuppressive therapeutics and NET-degrading drugs can have adverse side effects, underscoring the importance of creating controlled release formulations to target NETs. In this review, we discuss the NET-biomaterial interface for drug delivery to address infection, inflammation, and cancer. First, we examine how drug delivery platforms can be engineered for localized delivery of NET-modulating or NET-degrading drugs. Then, we consider a class of NET-inspired materials that can replicate NET function and pathogen degradation without triggering downstream hyperinflammation. Finally, we discuss current challenges in the field and how biomaterials can be further developed to elucidate fundamental insights on NET biology and target NET dysregulation in various disease states.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
