Within the body, there are many structures that aid in protection from bacteria, viruses, and other foreign substances. These structures include cells that can phagocytize (engulf) foreign particles or manufacture antibodies (which help to inactivate foreign substances). Collectively, such cells make up the reticuloendothelial system (RES). Such cells are found in bone marrow, the spleen, the liver, and lymph nodes. |
