How do phagocytes protect cells?
Phagocytes are the white blood cells that protect the body by ingesting harmful foreign particles such as bacteria and dead cells. Also they are essential for fighting infections and for subsequent immunity. Phagocytes are crucial in fighting infections, as well as in maintaining healthy tissues by removing dead and dying cells that have reached the end of their lifespan. During an infection, chemical signals attract phagocytes to places where the pathogen has invaded the body. These chemicals may come from bacteria or from other phagocytes already present.
