17 Cards in this Set
- Front
- Back
|
Platelets
|
-Cell fragments
-Not cells -Purple, granular cytoplasm -No nucleus -Network of microtubules -Granuels only seen on EM |
|
|
Lymphocytes
|
-Nucleus w/ dark chromatin
-Small ring of basophilic cytoplasm |
|
|
Monocyte
|
-Largest blood cell
-Nucleus peanut shaped, not multilobed -May have many nuclei -Have more cytoplasm than Lymphocytes -Upon entering CT, become macrophages |
|
|
Neutrophil
Granulocytes |
-Cytoplasmic granules fine
-Nucleus multilobed -found in CT -# increase upond inflammation |
|
|
Eosinophil
Granulocytes |
-Cytoplasmic granules large and red-orange
-Nucleus bilobed -Attracted by histamine |
|
|
Basophil
Granulocytes |
-Cytoplasmic granules large and basophilic
-Nucleus often obscurred in LM by granules |
|
|
Mast cells
|
-found in CT
-Do not develop into mature form until at tissue destination -Found in skin, lung, gastrointestinal tract, uterus, and serosal lining. -Release histamine |
|
|
Basophilic erythroblast
|
-Chromatin started to condense
-Has lots of free ribosomes and so basophilic |
|
|
Polychromatophilic erythroblast
|
-Checkerboard appearance
-Cell is making hemoglobin so therefore color grey or bands of basophilia (ribosomes) and eosinophilia (hemoglobin) |
|
|
Orthochromatophilic Erythroblast (normoblast)
|
-Chromatin condensed
-Cytoplasm eosinophilic bc of Hb -Nuclus will move to periphery of cell |
|
|
Reticulocyte
|
-Cell leaves bone marrow as this cell
|
|
|
Changes during granulopoiesis
|
1. Nucleus shape from round to bilobed to multilobed
2. Appearance of primary (magenta) granules 3. Appearance of specific granules |
|
|
Promyelocyte
|
-only cell to produce azurophilic granules Magenta (azurophilic) granuels
-bluish-gray cytoplasm -Clear region near nucleus is Golgi |
|
|
Neutrophilic/eosinophilic myelocyte
|
-No magenta granules
-first exhibit specific granules |
|
|
Neutrophilic/eosinophilic metamyelocyte
|
-indented nucleus
-numerous specific granules -no magenta granules |
|
|
Band neutrophil/eosinophile
|
-Stab cell
-Horseshoe shape nucleus |
|
|
Myeloblasts
|
-first recognizable cell that begins granulopoiesis
|
