Blood is full of cells, which is the most abundant cell that makes blood red?
|
Erythrocytes (red blood cell) (RBC).
|
|
What do erythrocytes do?
|
they carry oxygen from your lungs out to your tissue cells.
|
|
The interior of the RBC you will notice no nucleus, no mitochondria, ect. The cytoplasma has a pinkish color to it. What gives it this color?
|
A protein called HEMOGLOBIN
(so think of RBC like a bag of just Hbg. Natures rationale for not having organelles inside cell is to have more room for the Hgb. |
|
What is the purpose of the Hbg?
|
Is the veichel that transport oxygen and carbon dioxide.
|
|
The molecules of Hgb contains of two component parts?
|
1. Heme---Protoporphrins (gr of organic compounds.
2. Globin---Protein portion |
|
What makes a Protein, the specific protein that it is?
|
* number of Amino Acids
* the sequence of AA put together. |
|
In a Hemoglobin we have how many Hemes?
|
4 Hemes. Each of the them have oxygen attached to it. SO " ONE MOLECULE OF HEMOGLOBIN CAN CARRY 4 MOLECULES OF OXYGEN!"
|
|
There are 4 Forms of Hemoglobin?
|
1. Oxyhemoglobin
2. Carbaminohemoglobin 3. Carboxyhemoglobin 4. Met Hgb |
|
What is Oxyhemoglobin?
|
Hgb fully loaded with oxygen or saturated with oxygen.
|
|
What is Carbaminohemoglobin?
|
When Hgb is carring Carbon dioxide. (instead of oxygen).
Giving blood that color of a dull reddish brown. |
|
what is Carboxyhemoglobin?
|
A Hemoglobin that has CARBON MONOXIDE attached to it.
|
|
What is Met Hemoglobin?
|
NOTHING ATTACHED TO IT!
|
|
Iron comes in two valance?
|
1. Ferrous
2, Ferric |
|
Functions of blood?
|
1. transportation of dissolved gases, nutrients, hormones, and metabolic waste.
2. Regulation of pH and electrolytes composition of interstitual fluids. 3. The restriction of fluid losses through damaged vessels or at other injury sites. 4. stabilization of body temp |
|
Composition of blood make un 5L. What are they?
|
1.Formed elments (2L) 35-50% hematocriot
2. Plasma (3L) |
|
Abnormal HCT too high or too low:
|
High-----polycythemia
Low------oligocythemia |
|
Normal RBC count?
|
4-6 million per cu.mm of blood
|
|
Leukocytes what are there function?
|
members of the Immune system. They fight infection and protect against infection and dx
|
|
Normal WBC count ?
|
5,000-8,000/cu.mm. of blood
|
|
High WBC and low called?
|
Hight: Leukocytosis
Low: leukopenia |
|
Granulocyts and Agranulocytes of the WBC?
|
BEN Likes A Money
Granulocyts B:Basophils E:Eosinophils N:Neutrophil A___ Agranulocytes L:lymphocytes M:Monocytes |
|
Neutrophil
|
Neutrophil: 60%
Mature: segs, polys, PMN Immature: bands, juvs |
|
Eosinophil
|
3-5%
Increse to do Parasitic infection and or allergy |
|
Basophils
|
0-1%
Release HEPARIN and HISTAMINE |
|
Monocytes
|
3-5% PHAGOCYTOSIS OF BACTERIA
When leave the circulatory system name changes to MACROPHAGES |
|
Lymphocytes
|
30%
Coordinate all of the activities of the Immune System. |
|
Lymphoctyes consist of three types?
|
1. B lymphocytes (B-cells)
2. T lymphocytes (T-cells) 3. NK lymphocytes (NK-cells) |
|
B Lymphocytes provide what type of immunity?
|
Hummoral Immunity (protect using chemicals)
* B-cells become sensitized (exposed to antigen or foreign pr)they turn into cells called PLASMA CELLS |
|
What do Plasma cells secrete?
|
A protein called: Antibodies
(gamma globulins or immunoglobulins) |
|
What is a memory B cell?
|
when body exposed to antigen the B-cells create a memory so next time it can know how to kill it.
|
|
T Lymphocytes, what type of Immunit they provide?
|
80% of population
Cellular Immunity (protection using the action of cells directly, such as destruction of infectious material by phagocytosis). |
|
types of T-cells?
|
1. Cytotoxic
*lymphtoxic *death-gene activation *perforins |
|
T-cells are made in?
|
Bone Marrow----Thymus gland---Lymphatic Tissues.
*Lymph nodes *Spleen *Tonsils *Peyers patches |
|
Types of Hgb?
|
1. Fetal Hemoglobin
2. Adult Hemoglobin |
|
Which has a better Hgb Fetal or Adult?
|
Fetal had the super Hemoglobin
|
|
Where is RBC formation happening at? or "Process of erythrogenisis "
|
1. Mesoblastic Stage
2. Hepatic Stage 3. Myeloid Stage |
|
RBC formation in the Mmyeloid Stage has an age factor:
|
Pre adolescence: myeloid tissue within our long bones.
Adults: myeloid tissue within our flat bones |
|
Prenicious Anemia do to?
|
Vit B12 deficiency. Not usullly b/c you don't consume enogh unless you are a very strick vegitarian but may not be secreating a PROTEIN in our lining of the stomach called: Intrinsic Factor that helps B12 to be absorbed.
|
|

What is erythropoientin?
|
Is a hormone that is secreted by the Kidneys to stimulate bone marrow to make RBC.
|
|
Hemostasis?
|
the process that is going on with in our body to keep our blood in our vessels.
|
|
Three processes creating Hemostasis? (to keep our blood in our vessels)
|
1. Vascular Spasm
2. Platelet Plug 3. Coagulation |
|
In vascular spasm how do you stimulate the muscle to constrict. What are it's intesity caused by?
|
Collegen (connective tissue)

|
What does coagulation mean?
|
you make a blood clot

|
To clot you need clotting factors they are....
