fMET activates neutrophils in an FPR1-dependent manner. Neutrophils from a healthy donor were incubated with A plasma from healthy individuals (HC) or patients with vasculitis (Vasc) or B medium and fMLP in presence or absence of Cyclosporine H (CsH) and analyzed for ROS induction using flow cytometry. C Neutrophils were pre-incubated with inhibitors scavenging mitochondrial ROS (MitoTEMPO) and inhibiting NADPH oxidase (DPI) and analyzed for capacity to induce ROS production upon stimulation with media, TLR8 agonist R848, fMLP, and/or plasma from patients with vasculitis (n=10). Statistical analyses were done using Wilcoxon signed-rank test with * p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01. Each circle represents an individual sample, with the bar representing the median of the group
