Tonsils- Physiological role
Provide Immunity
 trap bacteria and antigens
 allow the body to produce antibodies against them
 provide local immunity: viruses, bacteria and other infectious
contaminants and hold on to them before the immune system
goes in for the kill.
Process Lymphatic Fluid
 Tonsils process lymphatic or lymph fluid in unison with other
lymphoid tissue.
 Lymph fluid is circulated in the tissues of the lymphatic
system.
 The lymphatic system functions to remove interstitial fluid
from tissues and adjacent organs, to absorb fatty acids and
transport them into the circulatory system, and to transport
immune cells to and from lymph nodes.
 Lymph fluid contains fats, proteins and lymphocytes, which
are a type of white blood cells. It plays a primary role in
filtering and destroying germs and toxins.
Produce Antibodies
 Tonsils produce antibodies that neutralize respiratory infections
(e.g. pneumonia, bronchitis, ear infections, laryngitis, sinusitis and
rhinitis) that enter through the throat, mouth or nose.
 Antibodies (or immunoglobulins) are proteins that are found in
the blood and other bodily fluids. They are produced by various
components of the body's immune system and provide protection
against chemicals, viruses, parasites, fungi and bacteria.
 tonsillar B cells (a type of palatine tonsil cells) mature to produce
five classes of antibodies. They produce specific antibodies against
staphylococcus aureus, haemophilus influenzae, streptococcus
pneumoniae, poliovirus and diptheria toxoid.

Palatine Tonsil, Dog
In the dog the entire tonsil lies
within a fossa ( small hollow) and is covered in part by a semilunar
fold. The palatine tonsils of carnivores lack crypts.
