In mammals, including humans, a network of lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes that transport fluid, fats, proteins, and lymphocytes to the bloodstream as lymph, and remove microorganisms and other debris from tissues
The lymphatic vessels and lymphoid tissue, considered collectively (Dorland, 28th ed)
The system of lymph nodes and the vessels or small tubes which connect them Lymph nodes are located throughout the body, filtering out dangerous substances and producing infection-fighting cells called lymphocytes
The system of lymph nodes and the lymphatic vessels that connect them
The tissues and organs that produce, store, and carry cells that fight infection This system includes the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, lymph nodes, and vessels that carry lymph
the system of glands, tissues, and a passages involved in generating lymphocytes and circulating them through the body in the medium of lymph: includes the lymph vessels, lymph nodes, thymus, and spleen
This system is made up of lymph nodes, the thymus in the first several decades of life, the lymphatic channels, lymphatic tissue of the marrow, thegastrointestinal tract, the skin, and the spleen, and the T, B, and NK lymphocytes contained in those sites
Enlarge Image Your body's lymphatic system is part of your immune system, which protects you against infection and disease It includes your spleen, thymus, bone marrow, lymph nodes and lymph channels, as well as
The tissues and organs that produce, store, and carry white blood cells that fight infection and other diseases This system includes the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes and a network of vessels that carry lymph and white blood cells into all the tissues of the body
The tissues and organs (including the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes) that produce and store cells that fight infection and the network of vessels that carry lymph
The tissues and organs, including the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes, that produce and store cells that fight infection
The tissues and organs, including the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes, that produce and store cells that fight infection and disease The channels that carry lymph also are part of this system
Consists of lymph nodes linked by lymph vessels that carry the lymph fluid around the body This system collects waste from the tissues, returning it to the blood after it has been purified
a network of vessels that conveys water, electrolytes, proteins, etc , in the form of lymph from the tissue fluids to the bloodstream
This term sums up the tissues and organs which produce and store cells that fight infection (lymphatic cells) as well as the channels that carry lymph
A network of vessels in the body for transporting immune system cells that is separate from the blood circulation Includes the lymph nodes, which are immune system command centers
A network of vessels, valves, ducts, nodes and organs that help to regulate the fluid environment of the body by producing, filtering and conveying lymph and by producing various blood cells Lymph capillaries and vessels transport fats, proteins and other substances to the blood system and restore fluid that leaks out of the capillaries and cells during normal metabolism Lymph is moved through the lymphatic system by various body movements (muscle contractions, lung pressure changes, the working of organs)
A general term that includes lymph nodes, lymph and lymph vessels
—The tissues and organs (including the bone marrow, spleen, thymus and lymph nodes) that produce and store cells that fight infection and the network of vessels that carry lymph
the interconnected system of spaces and vessels between body tissues and organs by which lymph circulates throughout the body
A system of vessels which drains fluid out of the head, neck and limbs and returns it to the general circulation
The system that removes wastes from body tissues and filters the fluids that help the body fight infection
The interconnected system of spaces and vessels between body tissues and organs by which lymph circulates throughout the body. System of lymph nodes, vessels, and nodules and lymphoid tissue, including the thymus, spleen, tonsils, and bone marrow, through which lymph circulates and is filtered. Its primary function is to return proteins, waste products, and fluids to the blood; molecules too big to enter the capillaries pass through the more permeable walls of lymphatic vessels. Valves keep lymph flowing in one direction, more slowly than blood and at a lower pressure. The lymphatic system also has a role in the immune system. Nodes filter bacteria and foreign matter from lymph. Smaller nodules, which often produce lymphocytes, form in areas more exposed to such materials. They can merge and become permanent, as in the tonsils. Blockage of a lymph vessel may cause fluid to collect in the tissues, producing lymphedema (tissue swelling). Other lymphatic system disorders include lymphocytic leukemias and lymphoma. See also reticuloendothelial system
(lim-FAT-ik): The tissues and organs that produce, store, and carry white blood cells that fight infection and other diseases This system includes the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes and a network of thin tubes that carry lymph and white blood cells These tubes branch, like blood vessels, into all the tissues of the body
A network of tubes, channels, glands and body organs that help us to fight infection See lymphatic system
part of the immune system; includes lymph, ducts, organs, lymph vessels, lymphocytes, and lymph nodes, whose function is to produce and carry white blood cells to fight disease and infection
a system of vessels and nodes throughout the body which carry the lymph fluid and help to remove toxins from the body
tissues and organs, including bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes, that produce, store, and carry white blood cells to fight infection and disease
