Lymph Nodes

Lymph nodes are located through the entire body and are connected by special vessels called lymphatic vessels. They are essential components in ensuring that the immune system functions correctly. They are packed tightly containing immune cells called lymphocytes and macrophages. in resent research by the RIKEN research team it has been discovered that an equivalent artificial lymph nodes can be able to take full stimulation of a natural lymph node. The artificial organ will be able to be surgically implanted into parts of the body where it is necessary by implanting stromal cells. Much like an original lymph node, the artificial replacements will be able to produce immune cells such as lymphocytes and macrophages. The alternate tool is used as a device is used to keep the internal stateof the robot stable. The artificial lymph node will also encourage exact immune responses and act to help rectors the body’s immune system.

All over the world, there are people in need of lymph nodes, and ones who may even die from diseases such as cancer which was caused them to lose their lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are an essential part of the immune system as they act as filters for “lymph” which is a bodily fluid. The discovery of artificial lymph nodes has been tested on “humanized mice” and has been a success as the replicated equivalent can be used in imitate the function of natural lymph nodes. It was found that the artificial lymph nodes are able to toughen and even completely substitute original lymph nodes as when they were tested and visible to antigens, the suitable antibodies were formed and released. The artificial lymph node has not yet been available to individuals in need of such technology but the future for this robotic system looks promising as a prototype model is set to be released within a year. It will be able to be used in individuals who have lost their lymph nodes by surgically implanting the replicates. The main goal for the artificial lymph nodes is
