Summary
We hypothesized that upon systemic infection, the hemolysin-producing microbe lyses the erythrocyte and releases hemoglobin. Then microbial proteases and PAMPs enhance the ROS production by the metHb. Here, we used the mammalian (rabbit or human) red blood cell (RBC) to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the metHb-mediated ROS production.Further details
