Note: The Author desires me to add, that the misconception of some of his critics on this matter has induced him to insert in his dialogue with the Sphere, certain remarks which have a bearing on the point in question, and which he had previously omitted as being tedious and unnecessary.

Myeloid can be distinguished from the lymphoid progenitor cells that give rise to B cells and T cells.Myleloid is thus associated with the innate immune system, in contrast to lymphoid, which is associated with the adaptive immune system.yeloid cells originate in bone marrow or spinal cord, or a resemblance to the marrow or spinal cord.
