Deflating the Lymph Node [PDF]
Although the lymph node lymphatic vessel growth and development is positively regulated by B cells and macrophages, Kataru et al. (2011), in this issue of Immunity, show negative regulation of lymphatic vessels by interferon-γ from T cells.

Lymph Node Reactivity. II. Fetal Lymph Nodes [PDF]
Abstract A study was made of the progressive development of structure and metalophilia of the axillary nodes obtained from fetuses of various weights. Metalophil cells were rare in fetuses weighing less than 1000 Gm., while the adult pattern of metalophilia was not observed until the fetus approached 2000 Gm.

Lymph node (LN) macrophages have long been known for their efficient uptake of lymph-borne antigens. A convergence of studies on innate and adaptive immune responses has led to exciting recent advances in understanding their more specialized properties: presenting antigens to B cells, dendritic cells and T cells, producing trophic factors and cytokines,

Plasmacytoma of lymph nodes [PDF]
A case of primary plasmacytoma in a lymph node accompanied by IgG Kappa paraproteinemia is described. Eight months after the plasmacytoma's removal, the paraprotein was undetectable in the serum and the patient has remained well for a year. Abundant crystalline inclusions were present in the tumor and the immunoperoxidase technique was used to show ...

Enrichment of innate lymphoid cell populations in gingival tissue [PDF]
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a population of lymphocytes that act as the first line of immunologic defense at mucosal surfaces. The ILC family in the skin, lungs, and gastrointestinal tissues has been investigated, and there are reports of individual

Secondary lymphoid organs provide a specialized microenvironment tailored to foster communication between cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems. These interactions allow immune cells to coordinate multilayered defense against pathogens. Until recently dendritic cells and macrophages were thought to comprise the main innate immune cell subsets

Background The consensus is that a minimum of 12 lymph nodes should be analyzed at colectomy for colon cancer. However, right colon cancer and left colon cancer have different characteristics, and this threshold value for total number of lymph nodes ...

Tracking the source of the hepatitis B virus-specific CD8 T cells during lamivudine treatment [PDF]
Lamivudine treatment in chronic hepatitis B leads to the reconstitution of virus-specific T cells in the circulation, but it is not clear whether this is the preferential result of T cell efflux from the liver or lymph nodes.
