AGE FEATURES OF THE STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE HUMAN IMMUNE SYSTEM ORGANS
Immunity is an integrative system that conducts stereochemical sensory and unconscious analytical activities to maintain the metabolic individuality of the multi cellular organism, aswellas to enrich itsreactivity with acquired experience. The genetically programmed process of formation of the mentioned system starts even before the birth of a child and continue suntil puberty. Over such a long period, the ontogeny of immunity has gone through a number of critical stages that must be taken into account when assessing the state of the body’s natural defenses, aswellas in order to form the most optimal preventive and therapeutic programs. Such a high significance prompted the authors to write an article containing a description of the functional anatomy, development and age related features of the organs of the human immune system. This publication discusses the mechanisms of immune defense, provides a functional classification of immune organs, indicates the main stages of their development, outlines the anatomy of the organs of the human immune system, taking into account age related characteristics, and describes in detail the internal structure of organs.
