Granulomatous inflammationconsists of epithelioid macro-phages, giant cells, lymphocytes,plasma cells, and fibroblasts.
Epithelioid cells accumulate around the center of a granuloma. They get their name from the factthat they have pink cytoplasmsimilar to squamous epithelia.
Langhans-type giant cells represent fused macrophages.The nuclei are lined up around the peripheryof the cell.

Glomerulonephritis is blocked in γ chain-deficient NZB/NZW (lupus-prone)mice. Pathological features include mesangial thickening and hypercellularityevolving into end-stage sclerotic and crescentic changes.

Summary1. Phagocytosis is a component of innate and aquired immunity. It is the principalmeans of destroying pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Phagocytosis initiates theprocess of antigen presentation.
2. Many phagocytic receptors recognize a diverse array of microbial pathogens. Some pathogens (e.g., S. pneumoniae) require opsonization for their clearance.
3. Bugs fight back.
4. Phagocytosis is an essential component of development and tissueremodeling. Ingestion of apoptotic bodies is immunologically “silent” and isnormally accompanied by a suppression of inflammation.
5. Failure of this mechanism may result in autoimmunity.
6. Fc receptors come in two basic types: activating (ITAM-associated) and inhibitory (ITIM-associated).
7. The relative expression of activating and inhibitory Fc receptors determinesthe outcome of a given engagement of Fc receptors.
8. Fc receptor-driven pathology includes formation and deposition of immune complexes, which play a major role in autoimmunity.
