Neutrophil-centered inflammation and flawed clearance of neutrophils cause and exuberate multiple pathological conditions. These most abundant leukocytes exhibit very high daily turnover in steady-state and stress conditions. Various armors including oxidative burst, NETs, and proteases function against pathogens, but also dispose neutrophils to spawn pro-inflammatory responses. Neutrophils undergo death through different pathways upon aging, infection, executing the intruder’s elimination. These include non-lytic apoptosis and other lytic deaths including NETosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis with distinct disintegration of the cellular membrane. This causes release and presence of different intracellular cytotoxic, and tissue-damaging content as cell remnants in the extracellular environment. The apoptotic cells and apoptotic bodies get cleared with non-inflammatory outcomes, while lytic deaths associated remnants including histones and cell-free DNA cause pro-inflammatory responses. Indeed, the enhanced frequencies of neutrophil-associated proteases, cell-free DNA, and auto-antibodies in diverse pathologies including sepsis, asthma, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis, imply disturbed neutrophil resolution programs in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Thus, the clearance mechanisms of neutrophils and associated remnants are vital for therapeutics. Though studies focused on clearance mechanisms of senescent or apoptotic neutrophils so far generated a good understanding of the same, but clearance of neutrophils undergoing distinct lytic deaths including NETs, are being the subjects of intense investigations. Here in this review, we are providing the current updates in the clearance mechanisms of apoptotic neutrophils, and focusing on not so well defined recognition, uptake, and degradation of neutrophils undergoing lytic death and associated remnants that may provide new therapeutic approaches in inflammation and autoimmunity.
