Can unprocessed antigen also make its way to lymph node B cells?
No, unprocessed antigen usually doesn't reach to lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are the lymphoid organ where Immune response takes place. Lymph nodes consists of lymphocytes like B-lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes. When an Ag enters in the human body it will either enter into bloodstream or in tissues. Here, the Ag is unprocessed. Only Naive B cells can recognise the unprocessed Ag. Naive B cells after encountering with the Ag will become activated B cells and the processing of Ag take s place. Processing of Ag means preparing the Ag for presenting to the specific cells of Immune system i.e. T-lymphocytes (breaking into small peptide by EL complex or proteosomal mediated). So, only processed Ag makes its way to lymph nodes.

Which of the following is an INACCURATE statement regarding lymph nodes? Immune system cells are only located in the cortex. Lymph is channeled toward the hilus. Nodes can have several efferent and afferent vessels. Trabeculae compartmentalize the node.
