This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_tissue_defense_cells, macrophages derived from monocytes, mast cells granules contain such mediators as histamine, eosinophil chemotactic factor, neutrophil chemotactic factor, platelet activating factor, and cytokines, macrophages functions producing cytokines, Cells Involved in Body Defense locations Defense Cells in the Tissue, dendritic cells types myeloid dendritic cells, mast cells functions promote inflammation, mast cells functions activate platelets, myeloid dendritic cells located throughout the epithelium of the skin, the respiratory tract, and the gastrointestinal tract,, macrophages functions processing antigens so they can be recognized by effector T-lymphocytes during the adaptive immune responses, myeloid dendritic cells function After capturing antigens through phagocytosis they detach from their initial site, enter lymph vessels, and are carried to regional lymph nodes., plasmacytoid dendritic cell function production and secretion of type I interferons, Defense Cells in the Tissue examples mast cells, Defense Cells in the Tissue examples dendritic cells, processing antigens so they can be recognized by effector T-lymphocytes during the adaptive immune responses function effector T-lymphocytes activate macrophages, mast cells functions increase mucus production, mast cells functions attract phagocytes to infected site, myeloid dendritic cells function capture and present protein antigens to naive T-lymphocytes, macrophages functions killing of microbes, infected cells, and tumor cells by phagocytosis, mast cells location found in the connective tissue and throughout the mucous membranes, plasmacytoid dendritic cell function uses its TLRs to recognize viral PAMPs
