Macrophages are cells that eat 🍴. Their name comes from Greek makros=large and phagein= to eat. These cells not only eat microbes but also dead cells and cancer cells. They are part of the innate immune system and also help to recruit cells from the adaptive immune system like lymphocytes, to the site of infection.

I loved the @StoryBots episode on 'How Do People Catch a Cold?' and I bought the book that they released from that episode. My 3 year old was very impressed with the macropages 😅

Here is my #drawthisinyourstyle scene of the defeated virus and the triumphant immune cells 💪

I got my first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine on Saturday 😄 and I'm picturing in my body all these B cells and T cells getting activated. ⁠
⁠
Here is a dendritic cell presenting a piece of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to a CD8 T cell. After this 'piece'(antigen) is presented to the T cell it will replicate and create CD8 memory T cells. These cells will be then ready to strike before the virus even gets a chance to do damage. Something similar happens with CD4 T cells and B cells. The whole gang will be ready to defeat the virus.⁠
⁠
I still need my 2nd dose of course but at least my immune cells already started the process of creating immunity and I feel very fortunate! ⁠

Can you spot the granulocytes? They are kind of big and obvious 😂⁠
I added some new stickers to the collection and I couldn't help myself and take a 'blood smear' like picture. A blood smear is made with a drop of blood spread thinly onto a glass slide that is then treated with special stains. The slide is then examined under the microscope 🔬⁠
⁠
Back in the day when I was in the lab 🥼I didn't do blood smears, I mainly analyzed cells using an instrument called the 'flow cytometer'. But that is a story for another day 😅⁠
