Is an epidermal dendrite cell is a specialized phagocyte?
Yes. Epidermal dendritic cells arise from bone marrow and migrate to the epidermis. They are also called Langerhans cells after a German anatomist. These cells ingest foreign substances (phagocytic) and are key activators of our immune system.
What are Scavenger phagocytic cells in the central nervous system called?
Microglia

What cells are phagocytic?
white blood cells affected are phagocytic cells. They are part of the non-specific immune system and move via the blood to all parts of the body where they ingest and destroy microbes. Phagocytic cells are the first line of defense against microorganisms
