Thymus gland, the liver, the spleen, and the tonsils.
The lymphatic system includes organs and cells that filter lymph and blood and destroy foreign microorganisms. Lymph leaks out of capillaries to bathe body cells and circulates among tissue cells and the heart. Organs of the lymphatic system contain lymphatic tissue, Lymphocytes, a few other cell types, and connective tissue.
The main organs of the circulatory system are the heart, blood vessels and blood. The blood vessels include arteries, veins, and capillaries.
The "lymph" system is the shortened form for your lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a system of your body comprised of lymph nodes, organs and ducts. It's primary directive is to distribute immune cells and other factors throughout your bodies.
the main function of the lymphatic system is to collect and transport tissue fluids from the intercellular spaces in all the tissues of the body, back to the veins in the blood system;
Cancerous cells can also invade other organs through the circulatory system of the lymph, causing those organs to malfunction.
The mouth is the beginning of the digestive system. The parts that follow it are the throat, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. In addition to these parts, there are other organs that are involved with the digestive system, including the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder.
The lymphatic system is composed of assorted size vessels and lymph nodes located throughout the body. There are hundreds of lymph nodes in the body whose function is to filter the lymph fluid. An important part of the body's immune system, lymph fluid contains cells that remove harmful bacteria, viruses and other undesirable substances. The lymphatic fluid system does not have a muscle similar to the heart, which would aid in "pumping" the lymphatic fluid consistently. Therefore, when the lymphatic nodes or vessels become damaged due to surgery, injury or for any other reason, gentle lymphatic drainage massage stimulates the lymphatic fluid flow. Lymph fluid is normally encouraged to flow by the body's natural motion of muscles, organs and other body parts.
The lymphatic system can be broadly divided into the conducting system and the lymphoid tissue. The conducting system carries the lymph and consists of tubular vessels that include the lymph capillaries, the lymph vessels, and the right and left thoracic ducts. The lymphoid tissue is primarily involved in immune responses and consists of lymphocytes and other white blood cells enmeshed in connective tissue through which the lymph passes. Regions of the lymphoid tissue that are densely packed with lymphocytes are known as lymphoid follicles. Lymphoid tissue can either be structurally well organized as lymph nodes or may consist of loosely organized lymphoid follicles known as the Mucosa-Associated Lymohoid Tissue (MALT) The central or primary lymphoid organs generate lymphocytes from immature progenitor cells. The Thymus and the Bone Marrow constitute the primary lymphoid tissues involved in the production and early selection of lymphocytes. Secondary or peripheral lymphoid organs maintain mature naive lymphocytes and initiate an adaptive immune response. The peripheral lymphoid organs are the sites of lymphocyte activation by antigen. Activation leads to clonal expansion and affinity maturation. Mature lymphocytes recirculate between the blood and the peripheral lymphoid organs until they encounter their specific antigen. Secondary lymphoid tissue provides the environment for the foreign or altered native molecules (Antigens) to interact with the lymphocytes. It is exemplified by the lymph nodes , and the lymphoid follicles in Tonsils, Peyer's Patches, Spleen, adenoids, Skin, etc. that are associated with the (MALT).
The circulatory system can be open or closed, it depends on your species/ organism
Lymphatic System
Prostate metastasis is when cancer cells in the prostate get into the lymph system and begin to travel to other organs of the body, spreading the cancer.
