These immune cells are called phagocytes, such as macrophages and neutrophils. They recognize and engulf foreign particles through a process called phagocytosis, where the invader is enclosed in a vesicle and broken down by enzymes. This is a critical mechanism for removing pathogens and maintaining the body's defense against infections.
