A type of blood leukocyte that differentiates into a macrophage
phagocytic cell found in the blood that acts as a scavenger capable of destroying invading bacteria or other foreign material; these cells develop into macrophages in tissues
A relatively large mononuclear leukocyte that normally constitutes 3% to 7% of the leukocytes in circulating blood; normally found in lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, and loose connective tissue
a large white blood cell that plays a role in immune defense by acting as a scavenger that destroys invading microorganisms Monocytes circulate in the bloodstream; when they migrate to the tissues, they mature into macrophages
A large white blood cell that is the precursor of macrophages
A mononuclear phagocytic leukocyte that circulates briefly in the bloodstream before migrating to the tissues where it becomes a macrophage (See 705)
                             see Macrophage
A type of white blood cell
a type of granular leukocyte that functions in the ingestion of bacteria
A monocyte is the largest form of white blood cell with a kidney-shaped nucleus; its function is the ingestion of foreign particles such as bacteria and tissue debris Monocytes belong to the group of phagocytes
a large circulating white blood cell, formed in the bone marrow and in the spleen, that has a single well-defined nucleus and consumes large foreign particles and cell debris
a large white blood cell with finely granulated chromatin dispersed throughout the nucleus that is formed in the bone marrow, enters the blood, and migrates into the connective tissue where it differentiates into a macrophage
A large, circulating white blood cell, formed in bone marrow and in the spleen, that ingests large foreign particles and debris
A large white blood cell in the blood that ingests microbes or other cells and foreign particles When a monocyte passes out of the bloodstream and enters tissues, it develops into a macrophage
A leukocyte found in bone marrow and in the circulatory system Monocytes differentiate into macrophages in the tissues
a type of white blood cell that assists in the fight against bacteria and fungi that invade the body
A type of white blood cell An increase in the monocyte count in the CBC is an early indicator that the white blood cells are recovering
leukocyte with a large, usually kidney-shaped nucleus Within tissues, monocytes develop into macrophages which ingest bacteria, dead cells, and other debris
A large mononuclear leukocyte
a large white blood cell that plays a role in immune defense Monocytes circulate in the bloodstream; when they migrate to the tissues, they mature into macrophages
A white blood cell that develops in bone marrow and is then transported to tissues, such as of the lung and liver, where it develops into a macrophage
A large white blood cell involved in the first line of immune defense and in the inflammatory process
{i} type of white blood cell that aids in the defense against bacteria (Biology)
A large phagocytic white blood cell which, when it enters tissue, develops into a macrophage
monocytes
One type of white blood cell Monocytes (macrophages) play a key role in phagocytosis The also interact with lymphocytes to regulate the immune response
monocytes
One type of white blood cell that destroys invading bacteria
monocytes
immunology, plural of monocyte
monocytes
a type of phagocytic white blood cell
monocytes
A type of white cell that represents about five to ten percent of the cells in normal human blood The monocyte, along with the neutrophil, are the two major microbe-eating and killing cells in the blood When monocytes leave the blood and enter the tissue they are converted to macrophages The macrophage is the monocyte in action and can combat infection in the tissues, can ingest dead cells (scavenger), and can assist lymphocytes in their immune functions
monocytes
Large, phagocytic mononuclear leukocytes produced in the vertebrate bone marrow and released into the blood; contain a large, oval or somewhat indented nucleus surrounded by voluminous cytoplasm and numerous organelles
monocytes
White cells that represent about 5% of circulating blood cells They are responsible for processing foreign materials (antigens), & the destroying cells & tissue debris that are by products of inflammation Normal range = 0 2-1 0
monocytes
3-8% of leukocytes - Manufactured in the marrow, these cells become macrophages (phagocytes) when they leave circulation and mature in the tissues (See neutrophils, above, for discussion of phagocytosis ) Differentiation to macrophages is promoted by colony-stimulating factor Once a macrophage performs its "fair share" of phagocytosis, it dies, however, it may live in the tissues for years
