Hematopoiesis
formation of mature, functional RBCs, WBCs, platelets in peripheral blood and ultimately functional cells of lymphoid organs and reticuloendothelial system.

in adult - only in bone marrow
erythrocye life span
120 days in peripheral circulation

2.5 X 10^9 erythrocytes per kg body weight produced per day
platelet life span
7-10 days in peripheral circulation

2.5 X 10^9 platelets per kg body weight produced per day
neutrophils
7 hours half-life in peripheral circulatoin
prenatal hematopoiesis
in yolk sac
primitive blood cells (red cells)
finishes by 3rd month gestation
where does hematopoiesis occur
yolk sac (3 months gestation)
live/spleen (2-7 month)
bone marrow (at birth)
hematopoiesis outside of the bone marrow after birth is called
extrmedullary hematopoiesisand is abnormal.
myeloid
pertaining to bone marrow
non-lymphoid, marrow derived blood cells
lymphoid cells
t- cells, b-cells, NK cells
CFU
colony forming unit
functional term derived from expts

e.g. CFU-E gave rise to colonies of cells with erythroid features
differentiation
hematopoietic cell progressing from STEM CELL to FUNCTIONAL CELL

undergoes genetic changes --> commit cell to lineage (erythroid, granulocytic, lymphoid)
maturation
accumulation of protein products
refinement of cellular strucutre dictated by pattern of gene expression in a cell committed to a particular lineage
self-renewal
dividing stem cell can either commit to a differentiation OR SELF RENEW

self renewal = production of daughter cells ..identical to original cell
CFU-LM
multipotential SC
gives rise to lymphoid AND myeloid elements
CFU-LM can self renew or commit to becoming pluripotent SC
CFU-GEMM
GEMM = granulocyte/erythoid/monocyte/megakaryocyte

pluripotent SC

can self renew or commit to becoming progenitor cell
progenitor cells
commited SC
limited self-renewal
give rise to precursor cells

e.g. CFU-GM, CFU-M, CFU-E
CFU-GM, CFU-M and CFU-E are examples of
progenitor cells

irreversibly commited to lineage
Precursor cells
cannot self renew
give rise to amture, functional cells in peripheral blood, lymphoid organs, and reticuloendothelial system
what percentage of nucleated cell sin bone marrow are SC or progenitor cells
1%
bone marrow vasculature
nutrient arteries course into bone marrow --> cap-venous sinuses --> central vein --> systemic circulation

passage of blood cells through the capillary-venous sinus endothelial layer i selective.
HIM
hematopoietic inductive environment

made up of stromal elements
include
endothelial cells of the capillary-venous sinuses
reticular cells lining the adventitial surface of the capillary-venous sinuses
fibroblases
lymphocytes
macrophages
adipocytes
ECM produced by stromal cells (collagen, laminin, fibronectin, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid, heparin sulfate)
hematopoitetic growth factors (glycoproteins or solony-stimulating factors CSF)
erythropoietin (Epo)
IL-3 (multi-CSF)
granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)
granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF)
macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF)
GM-CSF and IL-3
multilineage growth factors
act on many hematopoietic cells, including SC

the other hematopoietic growth factos act on committed porgenitor cells
HGF (hemato growth factors)
regulate proliferation and diff/mat of stem, progenitor and precursor cells

produced by T and B cells, macrophages, fibroblasts and endothelial cells

acts on specific cell surface receptors
granulocyte maturation
myeloblast-->promyelocyte --> myelocyte --> metamyelocyte --> neutrophil
in granulocyte maturation, when is the ability to replicate lost
at the metamyelocyte stage

myeloblast-->promyelocyte --> myelocyte --> metamyelocyte --> neutrophil
erythrocyte maturation
pronormoblast --> basophilic --> normoblast --> polychromatophilic normoblast --> orthochromatic normoblast --> reticulocyte --> erythrocyte
in erythrocyte maturation, when is the ability to replicate lost
at the orthochromatic normoblast stage

pronormoblast --> basophilic --> normoblast --> polychromatophilic normoblast --> orthochromatic normoblast --> reticulocyte --> erythrocyte
megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production
megakaryoblast --> promegakaryocyte --> megakaryocyte --> platelet
monocyte/macrphage maturtaoin
monoblast --> promonocyte --> monocyte
myeloblast
high nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio

fine nuclear chromatin

blue stained cytoplasm

NO cytoplasmic granules
promyelocyte
more condensed chromatin.

nucleoli present

*variable number of large, red (primary) granules tha tarise from golgi
myelocyte
secondary granules near golgi

less primary granules in myelocyte.

last neutrophilic precursor that is capable of dividing
metamyelocyte
more secondary granules (pink/purple cytoplasm)

indented nucleus
band
horseshoe shaped nucleus.

evenl;y dispersed clumps of chromatin


secondary granules
segmented neutrophil
same size and cytoplasmic properties as the band


nucleus is segmented into 2-5 distinct lobes (usually 3 lobes), connected by thin chromatin strands
eosinophils
cytoplasm has bunch of orange-red granules

segmented round/oval lobes of nucleus
basophils
lobular / non-segmented nucleus

blue - purple (basophilic) granules
cellularity
portion of marrow that is hematopoietically active

cellularity of bone marrow decreases with age. after 50 yo, 100-age
maturation of bone marrow
heterogeneous appearance b/c of the different erythroid, megakaryocyte and granulocytic precursors at different stages of maturation
prussian blue stain
