, Lymphocytes
Leuko - white, cyte - cell – white blood cells (WBC) circulate and function as our body’s main line of defense. WBCs
protect the body against bacteria, viruses, and other foreign bodies. WBCs arise from the Common Myeloid Progenitor
(CMP) or CFU-GEMM (Colony forming unit – granulocyte, erythrocyte, monocyte, and megakaryocyte) progenitor cell. As
this cell line matures, multilineage colonies form: CFU-GM (granulocyte and macrophage), CFE-Meg (megakaryocyte), and
CFU-E (erythroblast). WBCs are generally classified according to:
- Granules (granulocytic or non granulocytic)
- Nuclear segmentation
- Function as either phagocytic or immunologic

The granulocytes – neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils – contain distinct granules in their cytoplasm.
However, non granulocytes – monocytes and macrophages – lack prominent granules. This classification is mainly based
on their reaction to Romanowsky or Wright stains.

Nuclear segmentation is another
classification of WBCs. Polymorphonuclear
(PMN) cells – neutrophils, eosinophils, and
basophils – have a multilobed or segmented
nucleus. On the other hand, mononuclear cells
– monocytes (see Figure 1) and lymphocytes
(see Figure 2) have a single mass of nucleus.

Lastly, phagocytic cells – neutrophils,
eosinophils, basophils, monocytes – engulf and
destroy foreign invaders, while lymphocytes,
which are immunologic cells, primarily function
in antibody production.
