In conclusion, the data reached showed the ability of
BbV to induce the activation of neutrophil function. BbV
stimulates cells to produce ROS such as hydrogen peroxide.
Moreover, BbV induces the release of inflammatory mediators
IL-8 and IL-6, PGE2 and induce NETs formation. It is
noteworthy that this is the first description of the stimulatory
effect of BbV on neutrophil function.
