Macrophages are key cells for the maintenance of tissue homeostasis, for example, through phagocytosis of dead cells, which is an immunological "silent" process. By contrast, macrophages activated by pathogens are a primary host defense mechanism and via the production of oxygen and nitrogen radicals necessary to kill pathogens, can also damage tissues. ROS production causes oxidative dam…
