Summary[edit] Description: English: Macrophages(light blue) ingested Cryptococcus neoformans, a fungal pathogen (pale yellow circle). Nevertheless, the macrophage undergoes cell division and you can see condensed chromosomes (dark blue) and absence of the nuclear envelope. In red we highlighted macrophage mitochondria.
