Innate immunity in the large intestine
... The large intestine is also home to tissue-resident macrophages, eosinophils and mast cells. Between them these cells can phagocytose pathogens and release toxic and inflammatory mediators such as nitrogen radicals and histamine. Neutrophils are often the first cells recruited to a site of inflammat ...
