What do stromal cells secrete?
Steel factor
put these in order of basic to specific cells, progenitor, mature, MHSC, precurser, PHSC
PHSC, MHSC, Progenitor, precurser, mature
Name 2 stem cells function
1. self renewing
2. give rise to progenitor cells
what is a totipotent?
a blastomere that can turn into any type of cell
What are the 3 names of pluripotent
Hemocytoblast, PHSC, pluripotent
What is another name for multipotent
MHSC
What does a hemocytoblast (PHSC) produce as two daughter cells
Hemocytoblast and MHSC
name the 2 types of MHSC
CFU-LY: for lymphocytes- forms T and B cells
CFU-S: in spleen, for all other blood lines
What does a progentitor cell give rise too
Precurser cell
What is important about precursor cells
they are morphologically recognizable as belonging to a specific cell. ie, they have a destiny
What is required for PHSC and MHSC to undergo mitosis
Steel factor
What 3 factors can stimulate CFU's to produce more of their line?
Growth factors, colony stimulating factors or hematopoietins
What controls the release of mature blood cells from the marrow to the blood stream
release factor

the formation of granulocytes
what stimulates granulocytopoises
the loss of granulocytes
name 3 characteristics that occur during granulocytopoiesis
1. progressive reduction in cell size
2. increasing indentation and lobulation of the nucleus
3. progressive accumulation of specific granules.
name the 4 stages of granulocytopoiesis

4. Mature granulocytes
describe myelocyte
slight reduction of cell size.
round or oval nucleus
appearance of specific granules
describe metamylocyte
nucleus is kidney bean shaped
specific granules present
no longer mitotic
describe band cells
nucleus is C or horseshoe shaped.
specific granules are present
low percentage is found in peripheral blood
what is erthropoiesis
production of red blood cells
what is the biggest stimulator for erthopoiesis
tissue hypoxia (low O2 levels)
What are the essential cofactors for erthropoiesis
iron, folic acid, vitamin B-12
name the 4 general charateristics of erythropoisis
1. decrease cell volume
2. loss of nucleus
3. loss of cytoplasmic organelles
4. increase in hemoglobin

the 2 WBC groups ( granulocytes and agranulocytes) are based on what 2 factors
Shape of nuclei
presence/ absence of granules
do granulocytes have lobed or rounded nucleus
lobed
name the 3 WBC granulocytes
neutrophils
eosinophils
basophils

neutrophils and polys
what is the size and percentage of WBC count of neutrophils
12-14 and 60-70%
describe the neutrophil histologically
nucleus is 3-5 lobed and cytoplasm is transparent
name function of neutrophil
attack and kill bacteria. they are the antibacterial agents.
What is the size and percentage of WBC count of eosinophils
12 microns and 4% of WBC
describe the eosinophils histologically
nucleus is bilobed and LM: is pink cytoplasm. TEM: shows cats eye crystals.
explain eosinophils major basic protien
creates holes in parasitic worms and destroys them
explain eosinophils 2 functions
reduce inflammatory response
phagocytosis of antigen antibody complex-clean up
basophil size and WBC percentage
12 microns and less than 1%
describe basophil histologically
cant see the nucleus very well, it is an S shape. LM: coarse and dark cytoplasm. TEM: large dense secretory vesicles.
basophil function and origin
inflammatory responces. it is like a mobile mast cell. regulated secretion. origin in bone marrow
monocytes size and WBC percentage
3-8% largest of the WBC
describe the monocytes histologically
eccentril oval or kidney bean shaped.
monocytes function
gives rise to macrophages
forms multinucleated giant cells
lymphocytes percentage in WBC
20-25% 2nd most common WBC
describe lymphocytes histologically
nucleus is large and round. LM: thin rim, light blue cytoplam.
lymphocytes function
immunity, host defense. only WBC to return to blood stream.
