The Lymphatic System (Ch. 21) Functions *maintain fluid balance *immunity
Overview • Returns leaked plasma to the blood vessels • Cleanses plasma of bacteria and foreign matter • Provides surveillance sites by immune system cells • Nonspecific defenses: prevent pathogen entry; prevent spread of diseases caused by microorganisms; strengthen the immune system
Overview • the lymphatic system is the most important physiological system of combating foreign bodies such as viruses, bacteria, or fungi • it consists macroscopically of: the bone marrow, spleen, thymus gland, lymph nodes, tonsils, appendix, and a few other organs.
Overview • functioning of the lymphatic system is most easily seen at the microscopic level where the white blood cell is the single most important element. • white blood cells are produced, as are red blood cells, in the marrow of human bone.
Consists of 2 semi-independent parts: A. Network of lymphatic vessels- collect excess fluid (now called lymph) from tissues and returnit to the bloodstream. B. Lymphoid tissues and organs- house phagocytotic cells and lymphocytes
II. Lymphatic Vessel Transport Lymphatic capillaries- weave between cells and blood capillaries, microscopic Lymph collecting veins/ vessels
Lymph trunks- drain fairly large area of body; include lumbar, bronchomediastinal, subclavian, jugular, intestinal
Lymph Ducts- R lymphatic duct (R upper arm & R head and thorax), Thoracic duct (rest of body)
Lymph empties into venous circulation at internal jugular vein and subclavian veins • 3L of lymph enters bloodstream every 24 hrs
III. Lymphoid Cells • A. Lymphocytes- warriors of the immune system • T cells- manage immune response, somedirectly attack foreign cells • B cells- make plasma cells that secrete antibodies
B. Macrophages- phagocytize foreign substances, help activate T cells C. Reticular cells- make stroma, the network that supports other cell types
IV. Lymphoid Organs • A. Lymph nodes- hundreds but large clusters in inguinal, axillary, cervical areas • 1. Functions • filter lymph- macrophages • help activate immune system- lymphocytes
2. Structure a. node surrounded by DWF capsule b. 2 regions: cortex, medulla
B. Spleen- left side of and cavity below diaphragm 1. Functions a. Lymphocyte proliferation b. Immune surveillance & response c. Clean blood- macrophages d. Store rbc breakdown products e. RBC production in fetus f. stores platelets
C. Thymus- throat/ chest region 1. Grows during childhood, stops growing during adolescence and atrophies gradually. 2. Functions a. Secrete hormones that allow T cells to function properly b. Only lymph organ not directly fighting antigens
D. Tonsils- ring of tissue around pharynx • Named by location • palatine- most often infected • lingual • pharyngeal (adenoids) • tubal • Function- gather and remove many pathogens entering pharynx in inhaled air or food (blind-ended crypts)
E. Peyer's Patches- isolated clusters of lymph follicles in small intestine • 1. Function • destroys bacteria • generates "memory“ lymphocytes for long-term immunity
F. Appendix- clusters of lymph follicles; offshoot of cecum of large intestine ** Peyers + appendix + tonsils + bronchi lymph nodes = Mucosa associated lymph tissue (MALT)- protects digestive and respiratory systems
