Lymph nodes are the lymphoid organs which allow for the interaction of immune cells with antigen within lymph, that has been drained from the tissues. Lymph nodes consist of an architecture of connective tissue forming a stable framework, where histiocytes and antigen presenting cells reside and stimulate B cells into germinal centers and lymphoid follicles with help from T cells. Lymph nodes are also the site of lymphomas such as Hodgkins.
