function of alveolar macrophagesThe function of alveolar macrophage in the lungs is to remove dust particles and other debris from alveolar spaces.-Sheshi Aveolar macrophages work to break up surfactanct in the aveoli which exists to decrease surface tension in the lungs. If there is a disorder where the macrophage does not function correctly, such as in PAP, the surfactant will not be broken up and decreased ventilation will occur resulting in less oxygen delivery.
One of the most important functions of the macrophages is that they can activate the acquired immune system! After a macrophage has eaten and digested a particle, it displays some of the broken down germ proteins (antigens) on its cell surface.These antigens act as identification signals for Helper T cells.acrophages are not the only types of cells that function through phagocytosis. There are other important swallowing cells that make up the immune system, such as cells called granulocytes, neutrophils and dendritic cells.
