Myeloid cells are broadly classified into several categories based on their function and morphology:
1. Granulocytes: Includes neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. 2. Monocytes: These cells circulate in the bloodstream and differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells upon entering tissues. 3. Macrophages: Large phagocytic cells that engulf and digest cellular debris and pathogens. 4. Dendritic Cells: Specialized antigen-presenting cells that activate T-cells and initiate adaptive immune responses.
