The thymus functions as the primary lymphoid organ responsible for the generation of T cells and plays a crucial role in preventing autoimmune reactions by eliminating autoreactive cells before ...

A noncovalent attachment of nanoparticles to RBCs simultaneously increases their level in blood over a 24 h period and allows transient accumulation in the lungs, while reducing their uptake by liver ...

The mammalian circulatory system comprises both the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system. In contrast to the blood vascular circulation, the lymphatic system forms a unidirectional transit ...

Summary form only given. Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can act as inducers or mediators of stress response through the production of heat shock proteins (HSP) that modulate immune response and thymus ...

Objective: The purpose of this work is to study whether the active state and species of biological tissues can influence changes in their dielectric properties. Methods: In this paper, the dielectric ...

Recognition of self-peptide–MHC complexes in the thymus is necessary for thymocyte survival, but can also result in cell death. Here, the authors provide a unique insight into this apparent ...

The tapered left side extends slightly upward—called the body of the pancreas—and ends near the spleen—called the tail. The pancreas is made up of 2 types of glands: Exocrine. The exocrine gland ...

Researchers say nanoparticles could help engineer the spleen – a more promising long-term survival site than the liver – into a transplant hub.

Also, in the involuted thymus, glandular or tubular structures can be found. [7] Therefore, adenocarcinomas can result from extreme glandular differentiation during tumor progression.

Lymphoid organs are influenced by a variety of factors, and therefore special emphasis was given to separating the confounding effect of age, health status, nutritional state, geographical location, ...
