A leukocyte, commonly known as a white blood cell, is a vital component of the immune system that helps the body defend against infections and diseases. There are several types of leukocytes, including lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes, each with specific functions in immune response. They are produced in the bone marrow and circulate in the bloodstream and lymphatic system. An elevated or reduced leukocyte count can indicate various health conditions.
