Shortly after 1900, such elements were described under the rubric of "clasmatocytes" with the contention that they derived from peripheral blood leukocytes and emigrated from the bloodstream into tissue sites. Others likewise regarded them as "primitive wandering cells." In contrast, in their well-known and then-standard A Textbook of Pathology (first published in 1908), Beattie and Dickson1 offered the opinion that "histiohematogenous cells" were actually endothelial in character and originated from the lining cells of blood vessels and lymphatics. Sigal et al2 reported that Metchnikoff was the first to use the term macrophages in reference to the cells in question, in recognition that they were large (macro) cells that had the capacity to engulf (phagocytose) other cells, cellular debris, microorganisms, and foreign materials. He proposed that they were . . . [Full Text of this Article]
