Lymph is clear or white fluid that travels through vessels, moves within tissues and work to keep all the parts of the body clean. After passing through the channels of the lymphatic system they drain into the lymph nodes. The lymph nodes act as filters along the lymphatic system. These nodes trap germs like bacteria, viruses, toxins as well as cancer cells and ensure that these are removed from the body.
After an infection of the human body with a pathogen, a cascade of reactions will usually be set into motion.
A new study has revealed how immune cells migrate to the lymph nodes and help attack harmful viruses and bacteria.
