|
|

Large, long lived immune cells that can differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells. |
|
|
Basophil |
Granulocyte 1%. Fight ectoparasites; mediate allergic response |
|
|
Eosinophil |
Granulocyte 5%. Fight intercellular parasites; mediate allergic response. |
|
|
Neutrophil |

|
|
Macrophage |
Monocyte. Phagocytic; secrete cytokines; present antigens |
|
|
B cells |
Lymphocyte. Produce antigen specific antibodies |
|
|
Dendritic cells |
Monocyte. Present antigens; activate immune system |
|
|
T cells |
Lymphocyte. Helper T (CD4+) cells activate other immune cells; Cytotoxic T (CD8+) cells and NKT cells destroy cells marked for destruction; Memory T cells remain after an infection so a response can be mounted more quickly if infected again |
