RNASE1 and myocardial infarction: Thereby, RNase1 protects the endothelium from overwhelming inflammation by e.g., decreasing myocardial infarction size or thrombus formation, mainly via reduction of circulating eRNA levels, inflammatory cells and cytokines to recover physiological organ functions (Fischer et al., 2007; Kannemeier et al., 2007; Cabrera-Fuentes et al., 2014, 2015; Chen et al., 2014).
