When there are no cells, clotting factors, or clotting proteins, what do we have?
|
Serum!q
|
|
Plasm has...
|
clotting factors and clotting proteins! No RBC though.
|
|
When a pt is bleeding due to a lack of clotting factors we transfuse...
|
fresh frozen plasma!
|
|
In week 2 of the embryo where are RBCs being made?
|
Yolk sac aka mesoblastic phase (blood islands = immature RBC)
|
|
At 6 weeks where are RBC being made?
|
Liver (hepatic phase).
|
|
Where else are RBC made in the second trimester?
|
Spleen! Splenic phase.
|
|
At the end of the 2nd trimester where are RBC being made
|
Bone marrow (myeloid phase)
|
|
Where are RBCs ultimately made?
|
Long bone hematopoiesis gets replaced by the sternum and pelvic bones (fatty replacement in long bones)
|
|
What elements does the bone marrow have to aid in RBC production?
|
supporting structures like stromal stem cells and trabeculae. Trabeculae reach into BM and are the support and stromal cells have long branches that come off cytoplasm that interconnect and make a framework which is where the island of hematopoietic cells sit
|
|
Where are megakaryocytes?
|
Sit next to blood vessels and extend into cytoplasm. They split up and become platelets. NOT AN ACTUAL CELL.
|
|
What are the two pathways a hematopoietic stem cell can go down?
|
Myeloid or Lymphoid. Less able to self regenerate the further down the line they go.
|
|
What are some myeloid cells?
|
eosin, platelet, RBC, neutrophil, monocyte
|
|
Lymphoid cells?
|
T, B, NK
|
|
What do we call cells in between the progenitor stage and the neutrophil or any end of the line cell?
|
Precursors (unipotent) compared to progenitor which is multipotent! Does not include monocytes/megakaryocytes
|
|
What is the general pattern for developing cells? Size.. etc?
|
for example (proerythroblast --> erythroblast) cells get smaller as they mature and is true for all. Ratio of nucleus to cytoplasm changes and originally they have huge nuclei and huge cytoplasm.
|
|
What is a reticulocyte?
|
RBC pumped out a few days early usually due to anemia.
Also stab/band is a WBC produced early, perhaps due to infection |
|
What is another name for a neutrophil?
When do they increase? |
PMN
Due to infection. PUS. |
|
What is the primary lymphoid cell seen in circulation?
|
T cell! B cells become plasma cells and secrete certain Abs.
|
|
What do plasma cells look like?
|
Fried egg. Nucleus off to side and chromatin is clumped and CLOCKED FACE.
|
|
What cells do not have granules?
|
Lymphocytes or monocytes. Light blue cytoplasm. Round nucleus around the size of a RBC.
|
|
What does a monocyte look like
|
kidney shaped nucleus. bigger. more cytoplasm.
|
|
What are characteristics of the lymphocytes?
Neutrophil Eosinophil Basophil |
N- pale blue and pink granules in cytoplasm and nucleus with many lobes
E- red, binds eosin and has bilobed nucleus B- dark blue/black granules and can often not see nucleus (S shaped) also have histamine to release |
|
What are the % of cells in a blood count?
|
60% neutrophils, 30% lymphocytes, 5% eosinophils, small basophil amount.
|
|
What does collagen on the basement membrane do when endothelium is damaged?
|
Acts like velcro for platelets. Release substance to cause aggregation and they stick together. Endothelium also releases substances that promote clotting.
|
|
What hold the clot together?
|
platelets, RBC, fibrin, etc.
|
|
What is petechiae?
|
little bruises can be caused by rupture of BV
|
