Popis:	The mononuclear phagocyte system is made up of blood monocytes and their precursors, and two differentiated cell populations derived from them: macrophages and dendritic cells. The former are professional phagocytes whose main role is to take up particulate material, while the latter are specialized to process and present antigens to T cells. Keywords: macrophages; monocytes; phagocytosis; opsonization
