An Addition to Organs 

         Scientists believe that they may have found a possible new organ, the interstitium.  To begin with, the interstitium is a network of tissues that wrap around the digestive tract. However, they rediscovered that there were fluid-filled sacs.   As stated in the document, "When researchers took a closer look at this stuff with out squishing it down, that's when they identified the network of fluid-filled sacs."  Additionally, organs are defined as self-contained and sufficient, but the interstitium isn't an organ yet.  Moreover, if it were an organ, it could help figure out mechanisms in the body that aren't still fully understood.  The author comments, "Understanding better how this system works may enable us to find new ways to treat or prevent all these diseases..."  To sum up, the interstitium may be a useful piece of discovery scientists can observe to become more knowledgeable of the human body.
