Neutrophils and dendritic cells are both classified as innate immune cells that utilize Pattern Recognition Receptors to initiate inflammation [1] and are categorized as phagocytes [2]. They are both involved in cytokine production [3], are regulated by leptin [4], and interact during the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 where dendritic cells help recruit neutrophils to infection sites [5].

claimUnlike neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells, which use phagocytosis, natural killer (NK) cells attach to infected cells and release chemicals into them to kill them.
The Role of Immune Cells in Inflammation jmolpat.com 1 fact
claimInnate immune cells, specifically macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils, initiate the pathophysiological processes of inflammation by using Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) to recognize harmful stimuli.

procedureIn the immune response to SARS-CoV-2, infected cells are recognized by macrophages and dendritic cells, which triggers macrophages to produce proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, leading to the recruitment of inflammatory cells like neutrophils to the infection site.
