Mokele Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Lymph nodes are like rest stops on the highway - white blood cells and accumulate there and wait rather than being transported by the lymph.
greenprogrammin Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 I think there are T cells and B cells. T cells are from the thymus. B cells are from the bone marrow. You may want to look into the stem cells (hematopoietic cells) that produce many blood based cells. I don't think there are any cells specifically born in the lymph nodes.
