Principles of Immunology
Organs of the Immune System 1/31/06
“There are two ways to slide easily through life. Believe everything or doubt everything. Both ways save us from thinking.”
A Korzybski

detected

Thymus
Function Takes in immature T cells and puts out
mature (immunocompetent) T cells Increased diversity of T cells T cell selection

Thymus
T cell selection Based on MHC/Ag complex recognition
Recognize MHC/Non self AG complexes Recognize MHC/Self Ag complexes Do not recognize MHC/Ag complexes
Athymic condition Natural Other

Bone marrow
Structure Microscopic
Less well defined than thymus Role of stromal cells
Function Hematopoiesis B cell maturation B cell selection Puts out mature, naive B cells

Lymph Nodes
Structure Gross
Bean-shaped structures Drains major segments of lymphatic system

Lymph Nodes
Structure Microscopic
Major cell types Lymphocytes Macrophages Dendritic cells
Cortex/paracortex/medulla Follicles
Primary Secondary

Lymph Nodes
Function 1st line of response to antigens Secondary follicle (Germinal center) is site of B
cell proliferation, mutation, differentiation Specificity is high >90% of B cells die through apoptosis After Ag stimualtion lymphocyte numbers up by
50X in efferent lymphatic vessel Lympadenopathy

Spleen
Structure Gross
Ovoid organ in upper left quadrant of abdomen Microscopic
Compartmentalized Red pulp White pulp

Spleen
Function Filters out older RBCs Responds to Ag in circulatory system Produces activated B cells
Splenectomy

Tonsils
Follicular structure Contains lymphocytes, macrophages,
mast cells Germinal centers appear in response
to Ag Protective role in URI

Appendix
Associated with intestines Responds to Ag Role in GI immune response
