A macrophage is a large white blood cell that is an important part of our immune system. ... A macrophage has the ability to locate and 'eat' particles, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Macrophages are born from white blood cells called monocytes, which are produced by stem cells in our bone marrow.
