Where does hematopoiesis occur during development, delineate by periods of dominance.
1 trimester - yolk sac from blood cell islands
2 trimester - liver, spleen, thymus
3 trimester - bone marrow (red bone marrow)
What is yellow bone marrow and is it healthy?
proliferation of adipose, yes it is normal, it is bad sign if it starts disappearing
Contents of bone marrow:
a connective tissue
type of capillary?
what is an island
and what holds it all together
adipocytes
sinusoidal
cells with a shared lineage, at different stages of development, organized around stromal support cells and reticular fibers
reticular cells and fibers
What regulates the rate of maturation of hematopoietic cells?
stromal cells getting signals from the periphery
What is the lineage of stem cell progression?
totipotent -> pluripotent -> multipotent -> Progenitor -> BFU (burst forming unit) -> CFU (colony forming unit, transit amplifying) -> blast -> cyte cells
What are the white spaces in bone marrow?
adipocytes
What does a successful bone marrow transplant require?
early and late stem cells to be present
What do earlier cells in the lineage have an abundance of, and what does it change to as the line matures?
RNA (basophilic) -> eosinophilic (pink) protein
What is the lineage for B & T lymphocytes?
pluripotent -> lymphoid multipotent -> (migrate to lymphoid organs) -> lymphocyte-colongy forming cell (LCFC) -> lymphoblast -> Band T lymphocytes
What is the lineage for erythrocytes?
pluripotent -> myeloid multipotential cells -> erythrocyte-colony-forming cell (ECFC) -> erythroblast -> erythrocyte
What is the lineage of the megakaryocyte?
pluripotent cell -> myeloid multipotential -> Megakaryoctye forming cell -> Megakaryoblast -> Megakaryocyte
What is the lineage of a monocyte?
pluripotent cell -> myeloid multipotential cell -> MGCFC -> monocyte colony forming cell (MCFC) -> promonocyte- monocyte
What is the lineage for the Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils?
pluripotent cell -> myeloid multipotential cell -> XXX colony forming cell -> XXX myelocyte -> XXX granulocyte

For XXX enter basophillic, eosinophillic, or neutrophillic
From proerythroblast to erythrocyte what is the lineage/
proerythroblast -> Basophilic erythroblast -> Polychromatophilic erythroblast -> orthochromatophilic erythroplast -> Reticuloctye -> erythrocyte
What factors are observed as red blood cells mature?
get smaller, nuclear chromatin condenses, nuclear diameter decreases, hemoglobin accumulates (turns red), ribosomes decline (less basophilia) nucleus ejected
Characteristics of proerythroblasts?
Large cell
large, centrally located, pale-staining nucleus
a little deep, navy blue cytoplasm
mitotically active (unipotential stem cells)
Characteristics of basophilic erythroblasts?
patchy chromatin
Has a small light region in the perinuclear area with hemoglobin
can do mitosis
Characteristics of polychromatophillic erythroblasts
Significant hemoglobin
cytoplasm is a muddy gray due to red and blue staining
nucleus is smaller, chromatin is fairly condensed with a checkerboard pattern
Can still make hemoglobin and divide
Orthochromatophillic erythroblasts (Normoblast)
Chromatin very condensed making nucleus appear black, nucleus can be eccentrically placed
Cannot divide, stage ends with expulsion of nucleus
Characteristics of Reticulocytes
1-2% of RBCs in blood
mature in first 24-48 hours in circulation
mature by ejecting or digesting remaining organelles and assumption of biconcave shape
What does the dye cresyl blue allow you to see in reticulocytes?
Residual polyribosomes
What is leukopoeisis and what does it encompass?
white blood cell formation, both granulopoiesis and agranulopoiesis
What 3 cell types are produces in granulopoiesis?
neutrophils, basophils and eosinophils
Characteristics of myeloblasts
large, spherical euchromatic nucleus with several nucleoli
cytoplast lacks granules and is more basophilic than that of their CFU precursors but less basophilic than proerythroblast cytoplasm
Characteristics of promyelocytes?
chromatin is a little more condensed, spherical nuclei often flattened on one side, cytoplasm is more basopilic than that of myeloblasts and may contain azurophilic granules (lysosomes)
What are azurophilic granules?
lysosomes
Characteristics of myelocytes
First stage that allows differentiation into the 3 granuloctye types. nuclei are oval shaped, and chromatin is more condensed
can divide
Characteristics of metamyelocytes?
more granules, nucleus is indented resembling a kidney bean
At what stage of development is mitotic ability lost in erythrocytes and granuloctyes?
orthochromatophillic erythroblast (normoblast), Metamyelocytes
Characteristics of band cells?
Horseshoe shaped nuclei with an indentation that crosses the midline
What are the two agranulopoiesis cell types?
monocytes and lymphocytes...
What are the stages of thrombopoiesis?
CFU -> megakaryoblasts -> megakaryoctyes -> platelets
Where are lymphocytes and monocytes terminally differentiated? What does a Beta cell become?
Outside of bone marrow
Plasma cell
