The Monocyte

ABOUT THE MONOCYTES

Monocytes are a type of white blood cell that differentiates into macrophages and dendritic cells. They have a large nucleus and cytoplasm with their main functions being phagocytosis, antigen presentation and cytokine production. They are involved in the innate immune system as well as play an influential role in the adaptive immune system. They are created in the bone marrow from monoblasts and move to circulating in the bloodstream for 1-3 days followed by tissues where they will continue to differentiate. Monocytes are responsible for protection against foreign substances and in the formation of various organs.
