Preface
Sixteen years have passed since the first Leiden Conference on Mononuclear Phagocytes. That first meeting led to new nomenclature, i.e., the Mononuclear Phagocytes System (MPS), which was published in the Bulletin of the World Health Organization (R. van Furth, et aI., Bull. WHO, 1972, 46: 845-852). The paradigm of the MPS has the advantage of being much more consistent than the Reticuloendothelial System (RES) (L. Aschoff, Ergebn. Inn. Med. Kinderheilk. 1924, 26:1), because cells with similar characteristics can be classified in the same category.
The essence ota new concept is, according to Popper, that it must be susceptible to falsification. This has been attempted several times for the MPS by those who adhere to the RES. However, in biology no one can be certain of truth. Any theory must be based on experimental observations and/or theoretical considerations and both should be presented in such a way that others can try to refute it, then or later. One may have a theoretical or a pragmatic preference for a theory which at a given time is regarded as possibly truc, but later it may be shown to be false. In other words, what we present in this volume is regarded as true at this moment, but others may consider it as not true and try to disprove it. Controversies often stimulate new research. One of the fundamental qualities of a meeting such as this is openness and the willingness to discuss the results, to formulate a more general concept on the basis of experimental results, and to listen to those who disagree.
The concept of the MPS has stimulated much research in the area of the physiology and pathology of mononuclear phagocytes. At present, this term is found in many modern textbooks in such fields as histology, pathology, internal medicine, and haematology, published in many languages.
The mononuclear phagocyte cell line originates in the bone marrow, where the dividing cells, monoblasts and promonocytes, reside and monocytes are formed. The monocytes leave the bone marrow and are transported by the peripheral blood to the body's organs and cavities, where they differentiate into macrophages. Thus, mononuclear phagocytes can differentiate into mature cells, and macrophages also can be activated by a number of stimuli, for example lymphokines formed by T lymphocytes. The differentiation and activation of mononuclear phagocytes is expressed in morphological and functional characteristics. Thesc processes are symbolized by the print reproduced on the cover, called Metamorphosis, by M.e. Escher.
The second Leiden Conference, which dealt with Mononuclear Phagocytes in Immunity, Infection and Pathology, was held in 1973. The proceedings of these first two conferences were published by Blackwell Scientific Publications, Oxford, London, Edinburgh, Melbourne. The third conference, which was concerned with the functional aspects of mononuclear phagocytes, was held in 1978 and its proceedings were published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, The Hague, Boston, London.
The fourth Leiden Conference (May 9-16,1984) dealt with the characteristics, physiology, and functions of mononuclear phagocytes and was organized by Z.A. Cohn, R. van Furth, and S. Gordon. This conference included such topics as the surface properties of cells, mobilization, in vivo kinetics, in vitro growth, chemotaxis, membrane electrophysiology, secretion and secretory products, complement-cell membrane

interactions, intracellular killing, extracellular cytotoxicity, lymphokine activation of macrophages, the role of macrophages in coagulation, genetic control of cell kinetics and functions, and the interaction between monocytes and endothelial cells. These subjects are discussed in the present volume, whose contents reflect the enormous strides made in research on mononuclear phagocytes during the last sixteen years.
Financial support for the Fourth Leiden Conference on Mononuclear Phagocytes was received from the Amsterdam-Rotterdam Bank NY, Bayer AG, Beecham Farma BY, Behringwerke AG, Ciba-Geigy BY, Eli Lilly Nederland, Gist Brocades Farmaca, ICI-Farma, Immuno AG, Institut Merieux, Lederle Nederland BY, Merck & Co. Inc., Merck Sharp & Dohme BY, Nederlandsche Middenstandsbank NY, Organon International BY, Pfizer Europe, Rhone-Poulenc Nederland BY, Roussel UCLAF, Sandoz Ltd., Squibb BY, Upjohn Nederland, the Wellcome Trust, and Zeiss Nederland BY, as well as from the Jo Keur Stichting, Leids Universiteits-Fonds, Nederlandse Yereniging voor Reumabestrijding, Nierstichting Nederland, Dr. Saal van Zwanenbergstichting, and the Leiden University Hospital.
Special mention must also be made of the secretarial and other staff members, who contributed so much to the success of this six-day conference. In the preparation of this volume for publication the editor was assisted by Mrs Nettie Kaat.
