The organs of the immune system include the bone marrow, the thymus, the spleen, and the various lymph nodes and aggregates of lymph tissue spread throughout the body.
Bone marrow

The spleen
The spleen is an organ most have heard about; its various functions include filtering blood and providing a storehouse for blood cells.
