general rules for cellular maturation (giemsa)
|
Size, Nucleus, N/C ratio, Nucleoli, cytoplasmic colour
|
|
according to cellular maturation, the larger the cell is ...
|
more immature, except for megacaryocytes
|
|
according to cellular maturation .. the young cells nucleus look ..
|
delicate, fine, open chromatin
|
|
according to cellular maturation..the mature cells nucleus look ..
|
condensation of chromatin, more coarse
|
|
according to cellular maturation..the Nucleoli
|
more likely in the immature cell
|
|
according to cellular maturation .. the cytoplasmic colour of young cells are
|
more blue or basophilic (more protein) ...exception plasma cells >> always blue
|
|
plasma cells are always very blue or basophilic why?
|
because of protein synthesis >> high RNA content
|
|
RBCs count in men and women
|
men = 4.5 -5.9 * 10^12/L
women = 4.1 -5.1*10^12/L |
|
WBCs count
|
4-11*10^9
|
|
Differential count for WBCs
|
segmented neutrophils 50-60%
lymphocytes 30-40% monocytes 6-12% bands 1-3% eosinophils 1-3% basophils 0-1% |
|
platelets are stained by :
|
Wright-giemsa stain
|
|
RBCS morphology
|
7 micron in diameter, disc shaped. appears round on a smear, rim of hemoglobin and a clean central area. central pallor, less than 1/2 the diameter
|
|
segmented neutrophil morphology
|
round cells. 10-14 micron in diameter, lobuled nucleus, 2 to 5 lobes connected with thin chromatin
|
|
what is special about female neutrophil ?
|
presence of drum stick
|
|
what is found in neutrophil cytoplamsm ?
|
primary granules (peroxidase, acid phosphatase)
secondary granules(collagenase, lactoferin, lysozyme) |
|
what is the difference btwn neutrophil and band ?
|
band is young segmented neutrophil and its nuclues is U-shaped
|
|
what is the characterstic of eosinophil cytoplasm ?
|
red-orange granules
|
|
describe eosinophil
|
slightly larger than neutrophils - only 2 lobes connected by thin chromatin
|
|
describe the Basophil
|
similar to neutrophils - deeply basophilic dark cytoplasmic granules which some times obscure the nucleus
|
|
describe the lymphocyte
|
small in size, 10 micron in diameter, small amount of cytoplasm
|
|
describe the Monocyte
|
the largest cell in blood,15-22 micron in diameter, kidney shaped nuclues, blue-gray cytoplasm
|
|
classify WBCS according to size from the largest one to the smallest
|
monocyte-
esoinophil- basophil = neutrophil lymphocyte |
|
what are the precursors of platelet
|
Megakaryoblast
Megakaryocyte |
|
what is the difference btwn megakaryocyte and megakaryoblast morphologicly ?
|
megakaryoblast -megakaryocyte
smaller larger round intercon. lobes dark blue bluish purple |
|
pletelet come from ..
|
cytoplasmic granules of megakarycyte
|
|
what are the cell found in bone marrow
|
lymphocyte-lymphoblast
monocyte - monoblast plasma cell osteoblast - osteoclast macrophage |
|
what are the differences btwn plasma cell and osteoblast ?
|
plasma oval shape
osteoblast olengated shape perinuclear golgi - central gologi |
|
wht the difference btwn megakaryocyte and osteoclast?
|
megakaryocyte is multilobed connected nucleus
osteoclast multiple not interconnected nucleus |
|
RBCs appearance on thin and thick area
|
thin area - no pallor
thick area - pilling of RBCs |
