DEVELOPMENT OF THE SPLEEN

Author: JF Jones ( )

Abstract

Embryogenesis and later development of the spleen's hematologic and immune functions involves ingrowth of vascular channels, influx of reticular cells and related byproducts to form a filtering network, migration of cells from other organs such as bone marrow and thymus, and final maturation of transient and resident cell populations.
