and Diseases Affecting the Lymphatic System The lymphatic system plays a key role in regulating the flow of fluids and proteins between the tissues and the general circulation. The lymphatic vessels collect fluid‚ white blood cells‚ proteins‚ and particulate matter that have leaked out of the capillaries into interstitial space. Lymph fluid then flows to the lymph nodes‚ which act as filters. The fluid is transported to the circulatory system routed through the lymphatic duct and thoracic duct to

Lymphatic System consists of 2 semi-independent parts: 1. Lymphatic vessels—network that carries lymph from peripheral tissues to the venous system 2. Lymphatic tissue and organs—found throughout the body *Lymph system cells—lymphocytes‚ phagocytes and other immune system cells What is Lymph? Fluid derived from plasma/interstitial fluid. Does not have plasma proteins What does the Lymphatic System do? Returns interstitial fluid and leaked plasma proteins to the blood stream It produces‚

allergic reactions like itching and localized swelling. The body may also react by causing calcium tissue to be deposited around the worm‚ walling it off and eventually causing its death. In humans‚ the mature worm lives tightly coiled in the lymphatic vessels where they reproduce. The female holds the fertilized eggs in her body. Later the embryos‚ called microfilariae‚ are discharged alive. An interesting feature of these worms is the periodic swarming of the microfilariae in the bloodstream

Difference in lymphatic function in health and disease state The lymphatic vascular system has an important role in tissue pressure and immune system. The lymphatic system also contributes to a number of diseases such as lymphedema‚ cancer metastasis and many other different inflammatory disorders. Lymphatic obstruction is a blockage of the lymph vessels which drain fluid from tissues through your body. Also allows immune cells to travel where they are needed. Lymphatic obstruction may cause

WEEK 5 Lab 5 - Lymphatic System & Disease Resistance 1. Describe lymphatic system functions. The primary functions of the lymphatic system are to drain and return interstitial fluid to the blood to absorb and return lipids from the digestive system to the blood‚ and to filter fluid of pathogens‚ damaged cells‚ cellular‚ and cancerous cells to help protect against invasion. 2. Locate each of the following lymphatic vessels: right lymphatic duct‚ thoracic (left lymphatic) duct
