Development of phagocytes and lymphocytes over time in hyperemic and ischemic states. During ischemia recruitment of macrophages and lymphocytes is hampered as is reflected by low macrophage and lymphocyte number. This is not the case during hyperemia, macrophage numbers increase as infection develops (lowest two lines). In the absence of macrophages during ischemia, microglia proliferate reaching the same numbers as macrophages do in hyperemia.
