PPT-LYMPHATIC & IMMUNE SYSTEM

1 Lymphatic Vessels Reach every organ in the body Pick up the tissue fluid lymph and transport it to the heart Lymph Nodes Pea shaped tissue along the vessels that contain compartment sinuses that house lymphocytes and macrophages. 1) Lymphatic Vessels. . Reach every organ in the body. . . Pick up the tissue fluid (lymph) and transport it to the heart. Lymph Nodes. . Pea shaped tissue along the vessels that contain compartment sinuses that house lymphocytes and macrophages. Mike Clark, M.D.. Lymphatic System. Composed of . lymphoid cells, tissues, organs, and vessels. The function of the lymphatic system is to . (1) fight infection (2) carry lipids absorbed from the GI tract to the bloodstream and (3) return fluids and plasma proteins that escaped from the bloodstream back to the bloodstream . Grace . Metry. , Meg Phillips, Rachel . Forcillo. , and Anna . Nevison. Lymphatic System. The lymphatic system aids the immune system in removing and destroying waste, debris, dead blood cells, pathogens, toxins, and cancer cells. . Non-specific Immunity. Born with some immunity .

A network of lymphatic vessels (lymphatics). Lymph. Lymph nodes. Lymphatic System: Functions. Returns interstitial fluid and leaked plasma proteins back to the blood. The specialists who diagnose and treat immune system disorders are called . immunologists. , and the specialty itself is called . immunology. .. Phagocytes. Phagocytes are often the first immune system cells . A. n . extensive drainage network that helps keep bodily fluid levels in balance and defends the body against infections. .. Together with lymphoid organs and tissues, provide the structural basis of the immune system. Chapter 6. Pathology, & Treatments. Pathology & Diagnostic Procedures of the Lymphatic system.
