Engulfing and Presenting
Whenever you hurt yourself, macrophages rush to the site of your wound in an attempt to defend against bacteria. These blobby looking cells use their pseudopods to embrace and consume foreign invaders. They are, in essence, the first line of defense. For most injuries, they help immensely. The only hurt they can’t help with is a broken heart. But you can indulge in a bit of retail therapy and buy a cool piece of science jewelry, like our macrophage necklace. It will do the trick! This accessory also makes a great gift for immunologists, cell biologists, microbiologists, and starry-eyed pre-med students.
