Human Monocytes

Monocyte cells (which include classical, intermediate, and non-classical monocytes) are the body’s largest white blood cells. Monocyte cells are phagocytic immune cells that are capable of killing infected host cells via antibody-mediated cellular cytotoxicity. Under the right culture conditions, monocytes can differentiate into dendritic cells, Langerhans cells, or macrophages.
