[edit] monocytes or lymphocytes in the Reticuloendothelial system?

According to this introduction, monocytes are participating in the Reticuloendothelial system, but according to the introduction on Lymphoma, the lymphocytes are participating in the Reticuloendothelial system. It is clear on Image:Illu_blood_cell_lineage.jpg that they aren't the same thing. So which one is present there? Perhaps both? Mikael Häggström 17:31, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

I made some own research at [1] and [2] and found that: Histiocytes and monocytes, not histiocytes and lymphocytes, form the reticuloendothelial system. Lymphoma is now corrected. Mikael Häggström 07:22, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
