| Â | Immune system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In humans and domesticated animals, the immune system is involved in a large proportion of all known diseases, which has led to an increased understanding of this immensely complex system and the introduction of therapies that modify the immune response. | | | The adaptive immune system, also called the acquired immune system, explains the interesting fact that when most mammals survive an initial infection by a pathogen, they are generally immune to further illness caused by that same pathogen. | | | Although the dichotomy of the innate and adaptive immune systems has served to simplify and facilitate the reductionist approach to immunology, a number of fairly recent discoveries have helped to explain old mysteries of the immune system as well as blur the division between innate and adaptive immune systems. |

| | The circulatory system or cardiovascular system is the organ system which circulates blood around the body of most animals. | | | The hemolymph is drawn back into the heart as the heart relaxes. | | | Following are some basic functions of the human circulatory system: |

| | The vitality and tone of the whole Circulatory System is fundamental to life and to the integration of all the parts of the body. | | | When we look at the body in a holistic way and treat any disorder or disease from this perspective, we recognize that all organ and body systems are connected and influence each other. | | | An excellent preventative health program should not only cleanse arterial plaque, tone the heart, help lower blood pressure, and promote blood circulation, but should also nourish, protect, and rejuvenate the cardiovascular system. |

| | In anatomy, the circulatory system or cardiovascular system is the system that circulates blood around the body of humans and many other animals. | | | After birth, the foramen ovale closes (failure to do so leads to a 'hole in the heart', with the mixing of pulmonary and systemic blood), and the ductus arteriosus becomes obliterated. | | | In mammals it is separated into right and left halves concerned with pulmonary and systemic circulation respectively. |

| | Located between the lungs, two-thirds of it lies left of the chest midline The heart, along with the pulmonary (to and from the lungs) and systemic (to and from the body) circuits, completely separates oxygenated from deoxygenated blood. | | | The lymphatic system functions 1) to absorb excess fluid, thus preventing tissues from swelling; 2) to defend the body against microorganisms and harmful foreign particles; and 3) to facilitate the absorption of fat (in the villi of the small intestine). | | | Receptors in the arteries and atria sense systemic pressure. |
