Of these, leukocytes are primarily involved in the immune response. All formed elements originate in the bone marrow as stem cells (HSCs) that differentiate through hematopoiesis. Granulocytes are leukocytes characterized by a lobed nucleus and granules in the cytoplasm. These include neutrophils (PMNs), eosinophils, and basophils.

It describes three main types: neutrophils, which are the most abundant and fight bacterial infections; eosinophils, which target parasites and are involved in allergies; and basophils, which aid in inflammatory responses and allergies through histamine release. Additionally, mast cells, which share progenitors with basophils, are mentioned as tissue-resident cells with similar functions.
