Overview
Phagocytes are important cells of the immune system which have the ability to ingest and kill foreign pathogens encountered by the body. Incongenital phagocyte cell defects, the ability of phagocytes to kill foreign pathogens is impaired, leading to widespread infections. Congenital phagocytes defects can be divided into two types:
- Defects of phagocyte number.
- Defects of phagocyte function.
