What does a fibroblastic reticular cell conduit do?

Question

It is important to health and homeostasis.

Answer 1

The Fibroblastic Reticular Cell Conduit rapidly conducts soluble materials across lymphatic tissues, including chemokines and antigens. It also displays ECM & adhesion proteins that support T- and B-cell migration past dendritic cells to lymphatic tissue compartments.

Thus, it plays a role in the body's immune systems to transport the T-cells and B-cells. Also, because it transports stuff across lymphatic tissues, it can help balance out the concentrations of different chemicals and proteins in the body (thus, it helps in homeostasis).
