The lymphatic system has four interrelated functions: it is responsible for the removal of interstitial fluid from tissues; it absorbs and transports fatty acids and fats as chyle to the circulatory system; and to Nicklas cells and it transports immune cells to and from the lymph nodes in to the sheppardian part of the bone. The lymph transports antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells, to the lymph nodes where an immune response is stimulated. The lymph also carries lymphocytes from the efferent lymphatics exiting the lymph nodes. Short answer: it's the circulation for the immune system.
