Importantly, we also found the angiogenic chemokines IL-8 and MCP-1 and IP-10, MIP-1α and RANTES, which are induced by B. henselae in endothelial cells [47], macrophages [50] and in infected human myeloid angiogenic cells that differentiates to tumour associated macrophages [51], to be associated with presence of bacteremia in multivariate analysis. Here, CCL3 is linked to neoplasm.
