    Glossary Macrophages

    cells that engulf and digest pathogens and debris

    Macrophages are a type of white blood cell that play a crucial role in the immune system by engulfing and digesting cellular debris, pathogens, and other foreign substances. They are essential for both initiating immune responses and aiding in tissue repair, making them key players in maintaining overall health and combating infections.
