İngilizce - Türkçe
(Tıp, İlaç) Retiküloendotelyal sistemde büyük fagosit hücresi, makrofaj
(Biyoloji) Büyük fagosit hücresi, makrofaj
{i} makrofag
(isim) makrofag
İngilizce - İngilizce
A white blood cell that phagocytizes necrotic cell debris and foreign material, including viruses, bacteria, and tattoo ink. It presents foreign antigens on MHC II to lymphocytes. Part of the innate immune system
A "white blood cell" or phagocytic cell that helps to protect the body against infections and harmful substances
A white blood cell that engulfs and digests foreign organisms Macrophages also stimulate helper T-cells to participate in the immune system response
{i} large white blood cell which destroys foreign and potential harmful particles (Biology)
A macrophage is a large scavenger cell present in connective tissue and many major organs and tissues including the bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, liver and the central nervous system Macrophages ingest bacteria and cell debris and are responsible for the breakdown of worn-out red blood cells
a large scavenger white blood cell that ingests and processes degenerated cells and foreign invaders The long-lived macrophages can harbor large quantities of HIV, and may act as viral reservoirs
type of white blood cell that resides in tissues, out of the bloodstream, where it attacks foreign substances and helps the rest of the immune system identify harmful toxins, bacteria, and viruses
A large scavenger cell that ingests degenerated cells and foreign organisms Macrophages exist in large numbers throughout the body and contribute to the development of acquired immunity by acting as antigen presenting cells They also ingest and destroy foreign matter coated with antibody Macrophages can be infected by HIV
A type of white blood that ingests (takes in) foreign material Macrophages are key players in the immune response to foreign invaders such as infectious microorganisms
a phagocytic tissue cell of the mononuclear phagocyte system that may be fixed or freely motile, is derived from a monocyte, and functions in the protection of the body against infection and noxious substances
a large (phagocytic) cell in the immune (reticuloendothelial) system This is the reconnaisance unit of the blood stream -- circulatin, looking for foreign matter, alerting (by producing neopterin) the entire immune system if there is a problem
The name for a large mononuclear phagocytic cell, present in blood, lymph, and other tissues Macrophages are derived from monocytes They phagocytose and destroy pathogens; some macrophages also activate B cells and T cells (See 705)
a type of white blood cell that assists the body’s fight against bacteria and infection by engulfing and destroying invading organisms
A type of tissue cells that is derived from the blood monocyte The monocyte migrates from the blood into tissues where it transforms into a macrophage Macrophages are present in most tissues The cell takes many forms and has several functions Three examples of macrophage functions are 1) ingest and degrade debris during tissue repair and remodeling, 2) ingest and kill or contain the growth of microorganisms, and 3) process and present antigens to lymphocytes
type of white blood cell that fights inflammation
An immune cell found all over our the body Macrophages act as scavengers that engulf dead cells, foreign substances, and other debris
cell that ingests foreign substances and presents them to the immune system
A large cell that helps the body defend itself against disease by surrounding and destroying foreign organisms (such as viruses or bacteria)
A phagocytic tissue cell of the reticuloendothelial system that may be fixed or freely motile, is derived from a monocyte, and functions in the protection of the body against infection and noxious substances
a type of white blood cell that assists in the body's fight against bacteria and infection by engulfing and destroying invading organisms
n (MACK-ro-fage) Type of white blood cell that surrounds and kills microorganisms, removes dead cells and stimulates the action of other immune system cells
a large phagocyte; some are fixed and other circulate in the blood stream
A large scavenger cell (phagocyte) that engulfs and digests invading microorganisms and cell debris
A large and versatile immune cell that acts as a microbe-devouring phagocyte, an antigen-presenting cell, and an important source of immune secretions
A type of white blood cell that ingests dead tissue and cells and is involved in producing Interleukin 1
A cell characterized by prominent lysosomes and the ability to phagocytose foreign material Macrophages are involved in both non-specific immunity, due to the phagocytosis of foreign materials, and in specific immunity, due to the presentation of the ant
cells that have the ability to recognize and ingest all foreign antigens as well as cell debris and other waste in the blood
An amoeboid cell capable of moving through tissues, engulfing and destroying dead cells or bacterium

macrophages
Any of the many forms of mononuclear phagocytes found in the tissues (Dorland, 28th ed)
macrophages
are phagocytic ("eating") cells of mammalian tissues, derived from blood monocytes (a type of white blood cells) Macrophages play an important role in immune response In fact, in response to foreign materials, they become activated and can kill some bacteria, protozoa and tumour cells, releasing substances that stimulate other cells of the immune system and present antigens to T-Lymphocytes, activating them (they are Antigen Presenting Cells, or APC) Macrophages may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions (granulomas) to epithelioid cells or may fuse together to form the foreign body giant cells or the Langhans giant cells
