In fact, heme can induce neutrophil migration by acting as a chemotactic molecule (Porto et al., 2007) or by inducing the production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) by macrophages (Monteiro et al., 2011). PubMed:24904418
As described before, LTB4 has an important function regulating heme-induced neutrophils migration (Monteiro et al., 2011). PubMed:24904418
Heme activates endothelial cells inducing the expression of the adhesion molecules ICAM-1 (intercellular adhesion molecule 1), VCAM-1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule 1), E-selectin, Pselectin, and von Willebrand factor (VWF; Wagener et al., 1997; Belcher et al., 2014) and causes neutrophil migration (GraçaSouza et al., 2002; Porto et al., 2007). PubMed:24904418
A seminal study demonstrated that the ability of heme to activate neutrophils depend on protein kinase C (PKC) activation and ROS generation, inducing the expression of adhesion molecules and modifying actin cytoskeleton dynamics, necessary features for neutrophils migration (Graça-Souza et al., 2002).

With the triggering of the oxidative burst and modification of actin cytoskeleton dynamics, hemin also induces neutrophil migration [10] PubMed:28716864

Under the same experimental conditions, addition of 1 mg/ ml A1AT significantly prevented hemin-induced neutrophil spreading and adhesion (Fig. 3A). PubMed:28716864
