Portal ceroid-laden macrophages mean necrosis of hepatocytes at the interface of portal tracts. The necrosis may be induced by the inflammation including interface hepatitis. Macrophages phagocyte the necrotic hepatocytes, then they have abundant brownish cytoplasm, which is called ceroid-laden feature.
Macrophages do not replicate. The bone marrow produces Monocytes which when they find a damaged area transform into Macrophages.
The brain does not contain fixed macrophages. Instead, microglia serve as the resident macrophages in the brain.
No, macrophages are responsible for removing dying or dead cells in the early stages of inflammation. Macrophages essentially ingest these.
Alveolar macrophages, aka DUST CELLS.
They become larger and turn into macrophages
Murine means "of, related to, or affecting rodents of the family Muridae," like mice. Murine macrophages are simply macrophages of these types of animals.
Stellate macrophages of the liver, also known as Kupffer cells, are located in the liver sinusoids, which are specialized blood vessels within the hepatic tissue. They play a crucial role in the immune response by phagocytosing pathogens and debris in the bloodstream. Kupffer cells are positioned strategically to monitor blood as it flows from the portal vein and hepatic artery, allowing them to perform their functions effectively.
Macrophages
MACROPHAGES (Some Monocytes enter tissue, enlarge, and Mature into Macrophages).
macrophages engulf, or eat , any microorganisms or viruses that enter your body
Macrophages are a type of white blood cell that begin their lives as monocytes. monocytes develop into macrophages or dendritic cells. For stem cells, please visit BOC Sciences
