They mature into monocyte s which, in turn, develop into macrophages . Structure A typical monoblast is about 12 to 20  m in diameter, has a nuclear to cytoplasm ratio of 4 1 to 3 1, and, like most myeloid blasts, has a round to oval nucleus with fine chromatin structure. One to four nucleoli are usually visible. The nucleus can be central or eccentric and it can show evidence of indentation or folding. The cytoplasm is agranular, stains moderately to lightly basophilic, and often has an intensely stained periphery and a prominent perinuclear zone. Maturation The monoblast is the first stage of monocyte macrophage maturation.

Agranulocytes are a category of white blood cell s characterised by the absence of Granule cell biology granule s in their cytoplasm . There are two types of agranulocytes Lymphocyte s Monocyte s. Lymphocytes are much more common in the lymphatic system , and include the so called natural killer T cells . The blood has three types of lymphocytes B cells , T cells and natural killer cells NK cells . B cells make antibodies that bind to pathogens to enable their destruction. CD4 helper T cells co ordinate the immune response they are what becomes defective in an HIV infection . CD8 cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells are able to kill cells of the body that are infected by a virus. T cells are crucial to the immune response because they possess a unique memory system which allows them to remember past invaders and prevent disease when a similar invader is encountered again. Monocytes share the vacuum cleaner phagocytosis function of neutrophils , but are much longer lived as they have an additional role they present pieces of pathogens to T cells so that the pathogens may be recognized again and killed, or so that an antibody response may be mounted. Monocytes are also known as macrophages after they migrate from the bloodstream and enter tissue. Other white blood cells which are not agranulocytes are mainly the granulocytes neutrophil s, eosinophils and basophil s.
