…Macrophages are the most active cells in the phagocytic process, and most of them are derived from monocytes in the blood, so macrophages and monocytes together are called the mononuclear phagocytic system. Macrophages derived from sources other than blood belong to the so-called reticuloendothelial system, which includes histiocytes in tissues, Kupffer stellate cells in the liver, alveolar macrophages in the lungs, macrophages in lymph nodes and the spleen, and macrophages derived from the pleural and peritoneal epithelium. *Some of the terminology that refers to the "reticuloendothelial system" is listed below.

…なかでもマクロファージは最も活発に貪食作用を示す細胞で,その大部分は血液中の単球に由来することから,マクロファージと単球とを合わせて単核細胞貪食系mononuclear phagocytic systemと呼ばれている。血液以外から由来するマクロファージは,組織に存在する組織球,肝臓のクッパー星細胞,肺の肺胞マクロファージ,リンパ節や脾臓にあるマクロファージおよび胸膜や腹膜上皮由来のマクロファージなど,いわゆる細網内皮系reticuloendothelial systemといわれているものに属する細胞である。 ※「reticuloendothelial system」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
