[Morphofunctional characterization of the immune system in ovine adenomatosis]
In sheep with adenomatosis, enhanced activity is exhibited by both the central and peripheral organs of immunity. Histologic manifestations of this in the thymus include blast transformation of the T and B zones, numerous mitoses, elevated numbers of unicellular thymus corpuscles, and accumulations of thymocytes around these corpuscles and capillaries, while in the lymph nodes and spleen they include many mitoses in the reactive centers of lymphatic follicles and in the mentle and marginal zones, and increased numbers of lymphocytes, neutrophils, plasma cells, and PAS-positive cells. The intensified functioning of lymphoid tissues combines with very pronounced phagocytic reactions in the immune organs and pulmonary parenchyma and with adenomatous proliferation.

Functions of the Lymphatic and Immune System
The primary lymphoid organs, including the bone marrow and the thymus, serve as the maturation sites for lymphocytes. Secondary lymphoid organs, like the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, activate these lymphocytes and serve as...
Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...
Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
