Lymphatic system

The lymphatic (limbic) system is a part of the human circulatory system in which filtration, transformation of intercellular fluid and immune function occur. It consists of a system of blood vessels, a network of lymphatic capillaries, accumulations of lymphatic tissue under the skin, deep in the tissues, and within the bone marrow. It works in the same way as blood, but instead of carrying oxygen and nutrients, it carries waste and immune cells. Lymph, which is formed during the exchange of materials through this system, contains many proteins, fats, metabolic products, viruses, antibodies and other substances that have been missed or acquired immunity, as well as bacteria and dead cell debris. Lymph flow in the body is maintained by the drainage of lymph into veins known as lymphoreticular drainage.
