The Lymphatic System: Vessels, Nodes, and Organs Text p. 399-403 WB 235-239
Lymphatic System Purpose: Return escaped fluids back to the blood Filter fluid and remove foreign substances (Immune Response – Body Defense) Consists of two semi-independent parts: Lymphatic vessels Lymphoid tissues and organs
Lymphatic Organs Tonsils Thymus Spleen Peyer’s patches Appendix (in pharyngeal region) Thymus (in thorax; most active during youth) Spleen (curves around left side of stomach) Peyer’s patches (in intestine) Appendix
Tonsils in your Mouth
The Thymus
The Spleen
Lymphatic System – Vessels and nodes Lymph vessels Lymph node Ducts Right lymphatic Left thoracic 3 L interstitial fluid / day Return leaked fluid Filter/clean fluids
Lymphatic Vessels Transport Fluids From Intercellular Spaces Back to the Bloodstream
System and vessel relationship Flow of Lymph Venous system Arterial Lymphatic Heart Blood capillaries Loose connective tissue around

Lymph Drainage Thoracic duct Spleen Entrance of right lymphatic duct into right subclavian vein Thoracic duct Spleen KEY: Drained by the right lymphatic duct Drained by the thoracic duct

Lymph Nodes Contain many lymphocytes and macrophages Lymph nodes filter lymph before returning it to the blood Harmful materials that are filtered: Bacteria Viruses Cancer cells Cell debris

The Immune System: Body Defenses Non-Specific Response Text p. 403-410 WB 240-243
TWO Body Defense Systems Innate defense system Non-specific 1st line 2nd line Adaptive defense system Specific 3rd line
Innate Defense System 1st line of defense Skin / mucous membrane Chemical secretions Reflexes
Innate Defense System 2nd line of defense Phagocytic cells Inflammatory response Fever Antimicrobial proteins Natural killer cells
1. Phagocytic Cells Neutrophils are active during short term or acute infection
Phagocytic Cell – Immune Response https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1ZoMZZV2d8
2. Inflammatory Response Signs: Redness, heat, swelling, pain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcAAnj4czzo
3. Fever Hypothalamus thermostat reset higher by pyrogens (secreted by WBCs) High temperatures inhibit the release of iron and zinc from liver and spleen (Bacteria need iron and zinc to survive) Speed of repair processes increases
4. Antimicrobial Proteins Enhance innate defenses by: Attacking microorganisms directly (COMPLEMENT PROTEINS) Hindering reproduction of microorganisms (INTERFERON) Complement proteins 30+ blood proteins that destroy microorganisms Interferon Proteins that inhibit viral replication https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1zjTImMuwY
5. Natural Killer (NK) Cells Lyse and kill cancer cells, virus-infected cells Release a chemical called perforin Perforin causes cell membrane and nucleus to dissolve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va1jaBGwoT8

The Immune System: Vaccination WB 251
Active vs Passive Immunity Active – your body makes the antibodies in response to pathogen Passive – your body receives antibodies from another source Which images represents Active and Passive Immunity?
