Your Body s Cellular Army: White Blood Cells Explained: Types, Functions, and Defense Mechanisms

Описание: Dive into a clear, structured breakdown of white blood cells (WBCs) and how they protect the body from infection. This lesson covers the five major WBC types, divided into granulocytes and non-granulocytes, along with the normal total leukocyte count.

You’ll learn how WBCs move, track, and eliminate pathogens through processes like diapedesis, ameboid motion, chemotaxis, and phagocytosis. The video explains the specialized roles of each cell type:
• Neutrophils targeting pyogenic bacteria
• Eosinophils defending against parasites
• Basophils driving inflammation and allergic reactions through histamine release
• Monocytes transforming into macrophages for long-term tissue defense
• Lymphocytes powering humoral and cell-mediated immunity

We also explore how immune cells use opsonization to enhance pathogen destruction and why apoptosis is essential for immune balance.

Perfect for medical students, nursing students, and anyone wanting a solid understanding of the immune system’s front-line defenders. #WhiteBloodCells
