Term
SPECIALISED CELLS INVOLVED IN THE DETECTIONS, PHAGAOCYTOSIS AND DESTRUCTION OF BACTERIA OR HARMFUL ORGANISM
Definition
MACROPHAGES
EXM: MONOCYTES IN BONE
KUPFFER CELLS IN LIVER AND ETC.
Term
MAJOR PHAGOCYTTIC CELL IN LIVER.
Definition
KUPFFER CELLS
Term
KUPFFER CELL FUNCTION
Definition
TO PERFORM SCAVENGER AND PHAGOCYTIC FUNCTIONS (REMOVE PROTEIN COMPLEXES, SMALL PARTICLES, SENESCENT RED BLOOD CELLS AND CELL DEBRIS (
Term
LIVER TISSUE CELLS
Definition
HEPATOCYTES AND KUPFFER CELL,( FUNCTION: PERFORM ALL OF THE LIVER'S METABOLIC FUNCTIONS ALL ARE FUNCTIONALLY IDENTICAL TO ONE ANOTHER
Term
MAIN MACROPHAGES IN CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM(CNS)
Definition
MICROGLIA, PERIVASCULAR (PVM), MENINGEAL(MM) FOUND IN: FOUND IN THE BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD.
Term
MICROGLIA
Definition
TYPES OF NEUROGLIA (GLIAL CELL) AND LOCATED THROUGHOUT THE BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD
Term
FUNCTION MICROGLIA
Definition
ACT AS CLEARING CELLULAR DEBRIS AND DEAD NEURONS FROM NEURON TISSUE THROUGH THE PROCESS OF PHAGOCYTOSIS.
Term
BONE MACROPHAGES ALSO TERMED OSTEAL MACROPHAGES
Definition
RECENTLY CLASSIFIED MYELOID CELLS THAT ARE DISTINCT FROM OSTEOCLASTS.
Term
FUNCTION OF OSTEAL MACROPHAGES
Definition
CONSTRUCT A CELLULAR CANOPY STRUCTURE OVER BONE REMODELING SITES, COORDINATE OSTEOCLAST TO OSTEOBLAST COUPLING DIVR ANABOLIC CYTOKINES FOR BONE FORMATION.(ALSO PLAY DIVERSE ROLES IN SKELETAL HOMEOSTASIS)
Term
BLOOD IN OUR BODY MACROPHAGES
Definition
HISTIOCYTES DERIVED FROM CIRCULATING MONOCYTES IN THE BLOODSTREAM, IMPORTANT FOR TISSUE REPAIR AND DEFENSE AGAINST BACTERIA INVASION
