Monocytes, the largest type of white blood cell, share the "vacuum cleaner" (phagocytosis) function of neutrophils, but are much longer lived as they have an extra role: they present pieces of pathogens to T cells so that the pathogens may be recognized again and killed. This causes an antibody response to be mounted.

13q deletion syndrome is a rare genetic disease caused by the deletion of some or all of the large arm of human chromosome 13.Depending upon the size and location of the deletion on chromosome 13, the physical and mental manifestations will vary.
The following are some of the gene count estimates of human chromosome 13. Because researchers use different approaches to genome annotation their predictions of the number of genes on each chromosome varies (for technical details, see gene prediction).

These monocytes, upon moving to injured tissue (such as the heart after myocardial infarction), turn into dendritic cells and macrophages while promoting tissue healing. [5] [6] [7] The spleen is a center of activity of the mononuclear phagocyte system and is analogous to a large lymph node, as its absence causes a predisposition to certain ...
15-oxo-eicosatetraenoic acid is an eicosanoid metabolite of arachidonic acid made my ALOX15; it has weak chemotactic activity for human monocytes (sees 15-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid#15-oxo-ETE). [ 71 ] [ non-primary source needed ] [ non-primary source needed ] The receptor or other mechanism by which this metabolite stimulates chemotaxis has ...
The PLA2G6 gene is located on the p arm of chromosome 22 at position 13.1 and it spans 80,605 base pairs. [8] The PLA2G6 gene produces an 18.6 kDa protein composed of 166 amino acids.
