Q

innate immune cells come from where?

A

Most are stationed in the blood and delivered into tissues on demand as a part of inflammatory responses or inflammation

Q

Cells that are Phagocytes?

Primary function?

A

Neutrophils and macrophages (monocytes)

primary function is to ingest and destroy microbes and get rid of damaged tissues (scavenger function)
