Monocytes play many roles within the immune system. They replenish macrophages and they respond to inflammation signals by moving quickly to the tissues that are affected.
They destroy dead cells. They engulf foreign materials.

- Neutrophils - Monocytes
Monocytes. When monocytes enter the tissue they are called Macrophages.
Neutrophils.
Monocytes ARE a a type of leukocyte , part of the human body's immune system, monocytes have 2 funtions: 1. to replenish macrophages and dendrites to normal state 2. monocytes can quickly (takes 8-12 hours and yes its not quickly....) go to the site of the infection and divide the tissue AND differentiate macrophages and dendritic cells to elicit an immune response...

- Neutrophils - Monocytes
Monocytes. When monocytes enter the tissue they are called Macrophages.
Monocytes are a type of white blood cell and are part of the innate immune system of vertebrates including all mammals (including humans), birds, reptiles, and fish. Monocytes play multiple roles in immune function.
monocytes are elevated in infections like tuberculosis
Monocytes mature into different types of macrophages.
there are two types of agranulocytes in the blood namely the monocytes and the lymphocytes.
Neutrophils are the only granulocytes that phagocytize bacteria. (Granuloctyes include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.) Eosinophils do NOT phagocytize (eat); they kill parasidic worms by releasing enzymes and chemicals that create holes in the cells' membranes. Two types of agranulocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. Monocytes function in phagocytosis. Also, monocytes turn into macrophages in tissues.
Neutrophils.
Monocytes Absolute refers to the number of monocytes in a blood sample. Monocytes are a type of white blood cell that helps fight infections. High levels of monocytes may indicate an ongoing infection, autoimmune disorder, or certain types of cancer. Further testing is usually needed to determine the underlying cause of elevated monocytes.
No they are not. Granculocytes have granules e.g. neutrophil. Lymphocytes and monocytes do not.
Monocytes may be elevated in chronic inflammation.
monocytes are high in bacterial & parasitic inf.
