Overview

Monocytosis is an increase in the number of circulating monocytes. In humans, 950/μL is regarded as at the upper limit of normal; monocyte counts above this level are regarded as monocytosis. Monocytes are white blood cells that give rise to macrophages and dendritic cells in the immune system.
