Pig Thymus Gland Function. The thymus gland is the site of t lymphocyte (white. Therefore, we examined the development of porcine fetal thymus, which is critical for the establishment of the immune system. All mammals have a large (enormous) thymus gland during the fetal stage. It’s a large, spongy structure covering the ventral surface of the trachea, extending up along either side, and also resides over the heart. Also note the thymus gland, which in many young mammals can be found in the throat and the thoracic cavity. It gradually shrinks, relative to the rest of the body, throughout life. Although the thymus shrinks after puberty, it continues to function as an endocrine gland during adulthood. The thymus gland lies along both sides of the trachea from the larynx towards the heart. However, it is much larger than most students1 expect. This is not a difference of pigs from other mammals. Both the liver and pancreas assist in the digestive process with the secretion of digestive enzymes and insulin. In this view, the thoracic.
