nodes and the lymphatic system: The lymph nodes are part of the lymphatic system, the tissues and organs (including lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, and bone marrow) that produce and store lymphocytes (cells that fight infection) and the channels that carry the lymph fluid.

They help fight infections and also have a role in fighting cancer). (Cancer, Urology)
