Cell of Immunity

Macrophages originate from bone marrow stem cells, developing through several stages including monoblasts and monocytes before maturing into macrophages that migrate into tissues. There are two types of macrophages: resident macrophages, which are stationary, and elicited macrophages, which are wandering cells. Their primary functions include phagocytosis, processing and presenting antigens, activating T and B cells, and secretion.
