| 41. | The Wikipedia article on dendritic cells says that these phagocytes are unique to the mammalian immune system.
|
| 42. | After a cat or other host is bitten by an infected tick the parasites infect mononuclear phagocytes.
|
| 43. | The excessive amount of signal " inactivates phagocytes so they can't kill bacteria,"
|
| 44. | Phagocytes generally patrol the body searching for pathogens, but can be called to specific locations by cytokines.
|
| 45. | The reactive oxygen species, superoxides and hypochlorite bleach within the phagolysosomes then kill microbes inside the phagocyte.
|
| 46. | These antibodies bind to antigens, making them easier targets for phagocytes, and trigger the complement cascade.
|
| 47. | The oxidized LDL accumulates in the macrophages and other phagocytes, which are then known as foam cells.
|
| 48. | But many are also taken up through phagocytosis by mononuclear phagocytes in liver, spleen and bone marrow.
|
| 49. | Bacteria such as " Yersinia " inhibit actin polymerization in phagocytes, thereby preventing their uptake.
|
| 50. | The process has triggered the name " Phagocytes " for the 1st line of defence in the immune system.
