a: Macrophage ~
b: teenager

What:

"Macrophages are like teenagers: they want to fit in. And one of the compelling features of macrophages is their ability to model their behavior after their peers (i.e., the social cytokine environment). The "good" macrophages play important roles in fighting infection and invaders, while the "evil" macrophages promote tumor progression. "
