Den process som ändrar makrofagers morfologi och funktionsverkan så att de blir aktivt fagocytiska. Processen utlöses av lymfokiner, som t ex makrofagaktiveringsfaktor (MAF), makrofagmigreringshämmande faktor (MMIF), immunkomplex, C3b, samt olika peptider, polysackarider och immunologiska adjuvanter.
The process of altering the morphology and functional activity of macrophages so that they become avidly phagocytic. It is initiated by lymphokines, such as the macrophage activation factor (MAF) and the macrophage migration-inhibitory factor (MMIF), immune complexes, C3b, and various peptides, polysaccharides, and immunologic adjuvants.
