−==Introduction==
−
−''Also referred to as the reticuloendothelial system or mononuclear phagocytic system.''
−It is compromised of [[Primary Lymphoid Tissue - Anatomy & Physiology|primary]] lymphoid organs which are responsible for the production of lymphocytes and the [[Secondary Lymphoid Tissue - Anatomy & Physiology|secondary]] lymphoid organs which function to provide and environment where [[Lymphocytes - WikiBlood|lymphocytes]] can react to antigen from the tissue fluid, blood and mucosal surfaces.
−
−The main functions of the lymphoreticular system are removal of senescent cells and production of immune cells.
