Macrophage Distinct Process: Efferocytosis in Oral Cancer

Abstract

Macrophages and neutrophils are the first defendants to invading pathogens and play a part in host defense against intracellular pathogens. Macrophages come into sight to play a major role in efferocytosis, phagocytosis of dead cells that contain bacterial content. Macrophages are distributed in tissue everywhere in the body, principally not the only digest and destroy invading pathogens, but are associated with clearing dead and dying host cells. The efferocytosis is explicated as the process of engulfing apoptotic cells and has long been depreciating for its role in the condemnation of inflammation.
