Effect of glycolipid Rhodococcus biosurfactant on secretory activity of neutrophils in vitro

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2014 Jun;157(2):238-42. doi: 10.1007/s10517-014-2534-9. Epub 2014 Jun 24.

Abstract

Glycolipid biosurfactant synthesized by nonpathogenic strain Rhodococcus ruber IEGM231 modulated the production of ROS and IL-8 by peripheral blood neutrophils in spontaneous and stimulated cultures. Secretion of IL-1β и TNF-α by neutrophils in the presence of biosurfactant changed insignificantly.
