|
Adipocytes are surrounded by?
|
external lamina (basal lamina)
-made from reticular fibers |
|
What is contained within external lamina?
|
reticular fibers
|
|
white adipose tissue has what shape/structure/look?
|
signet ring
|
|
what is the uncoupling protein of brown fat?
|
UCP-1 (Thermogenin)
|
|
How does brown fat make heat?
|
uncouples ox. phos. at the ETC
-heat is made instead of ATP |
|
do the number of adipocytes in adults increase? or just hypertrophy?
|
Adipocyte hyperplasia and hypertrophy both occurs in adults, throughout life
|
|
What cell cycle phase is adipocytes in specifically?
|
Interphase: G0: G-td
|
|
what hormone do adipocytes secrete and there function?
|
leptin --> dec hunger
|
|
what 3 hormones stimulate lipolysis?
|
glucagon, GH, NE
|
|
PWS secretes what excess hormone and what does this cause?
|
ecess ghrelin --> causing excess hunger and obesity = compulsive eating
|
|
How does cartilage tissue receive its nutrients?
|
Cartilage is Avascular
- receives its nutrients via diffusion ONLY (unlike bone) |
|
red marrow vs yellow marrow in the marrow of bone
-what is each? |
red marrow - blood forming tissue (hematopoiesis)
yellow marrow- mostly adipocytes |
|
what is myeloid tisue?
|
Tissue with the ability to perform hematopoiesis
-AKA red marrow |
|
myeloid cell
|
In hematopoiesis, the term "myeloid cell" is used to describe any blood cell that is not a lymphocyte
|
|
amount of time hematopoiesis occurs in each tissue/organ
|
yolk sac 2 weeks-2 months
Liver/spleen 6 weeks -birth Bone marrow (myeloid) 3 months-birth |
|
In development when does hematopoiesis begin in the myeloid tissue
|
(bone marrow)
3 months |
|
appositional growth applies to?
interstitial growth applies to? |
apo= bone
interstitial= only to cartilage (also bone) |
|
appositional growth?
|
apply growth to a pre-existing suface
|
|
appositional growth applies to?
interstitial growth applies to? |
apo= bone
interstitial= only to cartilage (also bone) |
|
appositional growth?
|
apply growth to a pre-existing suface
|
|
csf?
what are they types |
colony stimulating factors
-the are cytokines -IL-3 released by CD4 T-Cells -EPO - erythropoietin -TPO |
|
what differentiates stem cells into different blood cell types?
|
CSFs
|
|
what does TPO do?
|
differentiate CFU-MEg --> platelets
|
|
what 2 things do PPSC become when they divide?
|
1) regenerate copies
2) differentiate |
|
common name of:
CFU-GEMM CFU-L |
-common myeloid progenitor
-common lymphoid progenitor |
|
CFU-GEMM
|
Granulocytes
Erythrocytes Monocytes Macrophages |
|
RBC formation is under control by?
where is it made? |
IL-3 - T-cells (CD4+)
EPO - made by peritublar endothelium of kidney cortex |
|
what percent of circulating RBC are reticulocytes?
|
1-2%
|
|
heme is degrades into?
|
bilirubin
|
|
what stimulates differentiation in granulopoiesis?
|
IL-3 & CSF-GM (macrophage/granulocyte)
and then by CSF-G |
|
what type of granules do granulocytes have when they develop?
|
-primary (azurophilic) granules
-Secondary (specific) granules |
|
what color are primary granules?
|
purple-ish (burgendy)
|
|
what percent of granulocytes are band cells?
|
1-5%
|
|
what percent of circulating granulocytes are neutrophils?
|
about 60%
|
|
color/size of granules in granulocytes
|
Neutrophil = pale, very small
Eosinophil = orange-red, large (hamburger) Basophil= basophilic color, large |
|
shape of granulocytes
|
Neutro = segmented

how do you differentiate between plasma cells and orthochromatophilic erythroblasts?
|
The density of the nucleus
