Further experiments suggested that the production of high levels of cell wall - associated GAG makes A. fumigatus more resistant than A. nidulans to neutrophil killing by neutrophil extracellular traps, or NETs (NETs are are networks of extracellular fibers, composed of DNA and proteins
secreted by immune cells called neutrophils, that bind and trap various pathogens).
