Immune cells move to a site of infection by a process known as chemotaxis. This movement can be caused by a burn, infection or an injury.
Chemotaxis is the process by which single celled organisms, bacteria and somatic cells move about in response to a chemical stimulant.
The chemotaxis is initiated by cells such as macropahges, histiocytes, mast cells dentritic cells and Kupffer cells.
They act by activating their pattern recognition receptors (these are receptors that recognize pathogen molecules) in response to a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (these are molecules that are generally found in pathogens and not in the host cells).

Chemotaxis is the process of arrival of immune cells at the place of infection.
Explanation:
Chemotaxis is a process by which single celled organisms like bacteria, somatic cells can move towards the site of the infection by the influence of the chemical stimuli. The process Chemotaxis will initiate by the cells like macrophages, mast cells, kupffer cells.
The two types of Chemotaxis are
- Positive Chemotaxis
- Negative Chemotaxis.
