The invertebrate immune system possesses a mechanism named extracellular traps (ETs), it has been identified that this mechanism immobilizes and kills pathogens. ETs formation induces modification of histones, chromatin decondensation, and mixes with granule molecules, releasing them into the extracellular space as a defense mechanism. In the present review, we provide an overview on the identification of triggering stimuli such as pathogens, PAMPs, DAMPs, and chemical stimuli, discuss the participation of potential signaling pathways involving MAPK, PI3K, PKC, and ERK molecules that lead to NADPH oxidase or mitochondrial ROS production, and explore the potential relationship with several proteins such as myeloperoxidase, heat sock proteins, peroxinectin, elastase, and apolipoproteins. Furthermore, we also discuss the association of ETs with other immune mechanisms that could collaborate in the elimination of pathogens.
