|
EXAM 3 ANATOMY LECTURE 32: BLOOD
|
|
Blood vol for male and female:
|
Male: 5-6L
Female: 4-5L |
|
Components of blood
|
1. Plasma 55%
2. buffy coat (composed of leukocytes and platelets) 3. RBCs (45%)--> hct |
|
Formed elements of blood
|
Erythrocytes: rbc's
Leukocytes 1. neutrophil 2. lymphocyte 3. monocyte 4. basophil |
|
Mneumonics for Least-->Most numberous leukocytes:
|
Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas.
L: lymphocytes M: monocytes |
|
Leukocytes
|
Antigen presence--> cytokines released--> attract circulating leukocytes--> leave capillaries via diapedesis.
|
|
Platelets
|
250-400K
Lifespan: 5-9 dys No nucleus Many granules |
|
How are platelets removed?
|
By macrophages in spleen and liver.
|
|
What is a megakaryocyte:
|
Platelet precursor
1. large 2. in red bone marrow 3. multilobulated nucleus |
|
How does platelet participate in blood clotting?
|
It releases thromboplastin--> fibrinogen to fibrin--> polymerizes into fibers that form a clot.
|
|
Nitric Oxide (NO)
|
1. Vasodilator
2. Respiratory by-product 3. Short life span |
|
RBC
|
1. 99% of blood cells
2. biconcave shape 3. Anuclear 4. no organelles (nucleus, mito, ER, golgi) 5. cannot divide 6. 100-120 dys 7. constantly regenerating in bone marrow. |
|
Granular leukocytes
|
1. single multilobed nucleus
2. prominent granules |
|
Agranular leukocytes
|
1. NON-lobulated nucleus
2. no granules |
|
Neutrophil
|
1. 60-70% of wbc
2. lobulated nucleus 3. very mobile 4. phagocytosis |
|
Barr bodies
|
Can be seen on nucleus of neutrophils.
|
|
Eosinophil
|
1. Decrease allergic rxn (degrade histamine, and phagocytosis)
2. antiparasitic 3. diurnal (most numerous in morning, and least at night) |
|
Basophil
|
1. lobulated and irregular nucleus.
2. RELEASE granules to increase granulation a. immune response b. bee sting c. allergic asthma 3. granules contain histamine 4. weakly phagocytic |
|
Lymphocytes
|
Most important cells of the immune system.
B lymphoctyes mature in bone marrow. B cells make antibodies. T lymphocytes mature in thymus. T cells attack and kill. Increase with viral infections. |
|
What is the birth place of T and B lymphocytes?
|
In bone marrow.
NOTE: T cells mature in thymus B cells mature in red bone marrow After maturation, they are situated in the lymph nodes, spleen, and other lymphoid tissues. |
|
What are some examples of tissue specific phagocytic cells of monocyte lineage?
|
1. kupffer cells for liver
2. microglia for CNS 3. langerhans for skin 4. osteoclasts for bone marrow |
|
What germ layer is hemopoiesis derived from?
|
Mesoderm
|
|
The mesoderm eventually differentiate to what type of stem cell?
|
Hemopoietic (pluripotent) stem cell
|
|
What are the 2 types of multipotential stem cells?
|
1. myeloid stem cells (in red bone marrow)
2. lymphoid stem cells (in red bone marrow and finish development in other lymphoid tissue) |
|
What cells does myeloid stem cells include?
|
1. rbc
2. platelets 3. granular leukocytes 4. monocytes |
|
What cells are of lymphoid stem cell origin?
|
1. B lymphocyte
2. T lymphocyte |
|
What are the regulatory factors of hemopoiesis?
|
1. hormones
a. erythropoietin: rbc's b. thrombopoietin: platelets 2. cytokines: i.e. interleukin |
