What is lymph

We all know that lymphoma is a disease that can seriously threaten people's lives and health, and the incidence of this disease has been increasing in recent years. Therefore, some prevention issues of this disease in life must not be ignored. So do you know what 08 is? Let’s learn about lymph and the prevention issues we should pay attention to in our daily lives.

If you want to better prevent a certain disease, you should first have a certain understanding of it and know what it is like? Opium or what factors may affect it can help you better prevent and avoid more unnecessary harm.

Lymph (Latin: lympha), also called lymph fluid, is a colorless, transparent liquid in the human and animal bodies. It contains lymphocytes and is formed when tissue fluid infiltrates into the lymphatic vessels. Lymphatic vessels are tubes similar in structure to veins and are distributed throughout the body. Lymph circulates in the lymphatic vessels and finally flows into the veins, serving as the medium for tissue fluid to flow into the blood. Lymph exists in various parts of the human body and plays a vital role in the human immune system.

1.1 Lymphocytes

Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cells. Produced by lymphoid organs, it is an important cellular component of the body's immune response function. Lymphoid organs can be divided into two categories according to their occurrence and function: central lymphoid organs (also known as primary lymphoid organs) and peripheral lymphoid organs (also known as secondary lymphoid organs). The former includes the thymus, bursa or its equivalent organ (some people believe that it is the bone marrow in mammals). They can continue to proliferate lymphocytes without antigen stimulation and transfer them to peripheral lymphoid organs after maturity. The latter includes spleen, lymph nodes, etc. Mature lymphocytes need to rely on antigen stimulation to differentiate and proliferate, and then exert their immune function.

The above is an introduction to lymph. If you have any doubts about these issues, you should pay more attention to these understandings. Only when we understand more about its common sense manifestations can we help ourselves prevent the invasion of some diseases and better ensure our health.
