|---|---|
| lymphohistiocytic | Involving lymphocytes and histiocytes. (16 Dec 1997) |
| lymphohistiocytosis | Proliferation or infiltration of lymphocytes and histiocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid | Composed of lymphatic tissue. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lymphoid cell | <haematology, pathology> Cells derived from stem cells of the lymphoid lineage: large and small lymphocytes, plasma cells. (18 Nov 1997) |
| lymphoid haemoblast of Pappenheim | The earliest of four stages in development of the normoblast. See: erythroblast. Synonym: lymphoid haemoblast of Pappenheim, proerythroblast, rubriblast. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid hypophysitis | lymphocytic hypophysitis |
| lymphoid interstitial pneumonia | A rare disease characterised by interstitial accumulation of lymphocytes in the lungs and late fibrosis; usually a result of a lymphoma, occasionally seen in AIDS, especially. In children. Sometimes seen as an autoimmune disorder. Synonym: lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia, lymphoid interstitial pneumonia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid interstitial pneumonitis | <pathology> A form of pneumonia which is characterised by diffuse interstitial infiltrates and infiltration of lymphocytes into the lung tissue. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lymphoid leukaemia | <haematology, oncology> An acute form of childhood leukaemia characterised by the development of abnormal cellsdevelop in the bone marrow and lymphoblasts are found in blood-formingtissues. A type of chronic leukaemia found most often in the elderly, it is characterised by the presence of mature lymphocytes in the blood. Origin: Gr. Haima = blood (13 Nov 1997) |
| lymphoid polyp | Benign polyp consisting of aggregates of lymphocytes in the rectum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid ring | The broken ring of lymphoid tissue, formed of the lingual, faucial, and pharyngeal tonsils. Synonym: Bickel's ring, tonsillar ring, Waldeyer's throat ring. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid series | The cells at various states in the development in lymphoid tissue of the mature lymphocytes, e.g., lymphoblasts, young lymphocytes, mature lymphocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymphoid tissue | <anatomy> Tissue that is particularly rich in lymphocytes (and accessory cells such as macrophages and reticular cells), particularly the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, Peyer's patches, pharyngeal tonsils, adenoids and (in birds) the Bursa of Fabricius. Central lymphoid tissue: A term occasionally used as synonym for primary lymphoid tissue but should be avoided to prevent confusion between anatomical location, which is irrelevant and centrality in the system. Peripheral lymphoid tissue: Secondary lymphoid tissue, not necessarily located peripherally. Primary lymphoid tissue: Lymphoid tissues in which immune cells develop as opposed to the secondary or peripheral lymphoid tissues in which antigen independent or antigen dependent stages of maturation take place and in which responsive lymphocytes are found. Primary lymphoid tissues are foetal liver, adult bone marrow and thymus (and Bursa of Fabricius in birds). Secondary tissues are lymph nodes, spleen, tonsils and mucosa associated lymphoid tissue.

| lymphoidectomy | Excision of lymphoid tissue. Origin: Lymphoid + G. Ektome, excision (05 Mar 2000) |

| lymphocyte activation |
stimulation of lymphocytes by specific antigen or nonspecific mitogens resulting in macromolecular synthesis (RNA, protein, and DNA) and production of lymphokines; it is followed by proliferation and differentiation of the progeny into various effector and memory cells.
