formed elements
|
cells (white blood cells, red blodd cells and cell fragments (platelets)
|
|
Plasma
Serum Clot |
serum and clotting protiens
plasma minus clotting agents formed elements and fibrin |
|
Layers of coagulated blood
upper layer middle layer (buffy coat) lower layer |
plasma(serum+clotting element)
white blood cells red blood cells (volume RBC's =hematocrite) |
|
functions of the blood
(2) |
transport of nutrients, gases, metabolic heat, hormones, waste products
HOMEOSTASTIS- regulation of extravascular fluid volume, regulation of pH, regulation of body temperature, protection against infections, protection against blood loss |
|
erythrocytes
size |
a nucleated cells when mature and # approx 5 mill
7.5 um in diameter contain hemoglobin, conjugated protein, f polypeptide complexed to iron-containing heme grops |
|
each heme group is capable of combining with (three things)
|
O2- oxohemoglobin,
CO2-carbaminohemoglobin, and CO-carboxyhemoglobin |
|
do RBC's have a nucleus
|
not when mature, but when they are immature, they immature and in the macrophages they do
|
|
leukocytes
|
nucleated, leave vascular tissue via diapedesis
|
|
azurophilic granules
|
granules rich in acid phosphatase and peroxidase, so called cause they stain azure when stained with the Wright stain- granules found in all three cell types and are not specific to one type of cell
|
|
specific granules
|
developed after the primary granules- contain substances specific to a certain cell type
named according to the staining characteristics of secondary granules |
|
leukotrienes
|
synthesized by neutrophils and aid in the initiation of the inflammatory process, die while in battle, pus=dead neutrophiles
|
|
BASOPHILES
azurphilic granules specific granules |
typical lysosomes containing acid hydrolases
Spec- contain histamin, leukotrienes, heparin, eosinophil chemotactic factor, neutrophilic chemotactic factor |
|
bone marrow
body mass originates? where? |
3.5-5.9% of body weitht
originates second monthe of intauterine life with in clavicles |
|
hematoclasia
|
specialized cells that participate in the destruction of imperfect, aged, and damaged cells
|
|
functions of bone marrow
|
hematopoiesis, hematoclasia, immunologica- supplies stem lymphocytes to respective lymphoid organs, osseous-osteoblasts, osteoclasts- function in continual remodeling of bone
|
|
gross structure of bone marrow
red yellow |
red- indicates hematopoeises (found in flat bones of the body)
large populations of fat cells- little hematopoiesis in this type of marrow |
|
neonate bone marrow
|
all marrow is red
|
|
fat appears?
when is almost all of the fat yellow |
5-7 years of age
18th year most marrow in long bones is yellow |
|
2 compartments
|
vascular compartment
hemopoietic compartment |
|
vascular compartment
|
nutrients enter bone via nutrient foramina, from there branch into extensive networks of sinusoids
sinusoids predominate, walls of the sinusoids are surrounded by reticular fibers and phagocytic cells |
|
hemopoietic compartment
location, contents |
located between the sinusoids
contains cells of hemopoietic lineage connective tissue cells such as mast cells, macrophages, plasma cells, reticular cells |
|
megakaryocytes
|
located against the outer walls of the sinusoids to provide ready access of platelets ot circulaton
|
|
Hematopoiesis
|
mesoblastic phase, hepatic phase, splenic phase, myeloid phase
|
|
mesoblastic phase
|
occurs in the yolk sac at about 2 weeks after fertiliza
these cells form blood islands |
|
blood islands
outer cells develop into inner cells develop into |
vessel walls
nucleated erythrocytes |
|
hepatic phase
|
6th week of gestation, initially only erythrocytes are produced- 8 weeks leukocytes are produced
|
|
splenic phase
|
begins during the second trimester, continues with hepatic phase til end of gestanton
|
|
2 lineages of CFU
CFU (colony forming units-spleen) CFU-L CFU-L (colony forming unit-lymphocyte) |
erythrocytes, granulocte, monocytes, megakaryocytes
give rise to lymphocytes |
