Annotation rationales
CD14 monocytes are classical circulating monocytes with strong microbial sensing, inflammatory mediator and tissue-recruitment capacity.
Functional implications
They rapidly enter inflamed tissues, phagocytose pathogens and can differentiate into macrophage- or dendritic-like cells.
