What steps does hematopoiesis consist of?
|
1. Cellular Proliferation
2. Cellular Differentiation 3. Functional Maturation 4. Death (whether premature or normal) |
|
Where does hematopoises occur in adults?
|
- bone marrow
- extramedullary hematopoisis (anywhere not in the bone marrow) |
|
Where does hematopoises occur in the fetus?
|
- aorto-gonadal-mesonephros
- yolk sac - liver - slpeen - lymph nodes |
|
Why would pts. with myeloproliferative disorders have hepatosplenomegally?
|
- these organs (liver and spleen) regain the fetal function of hematopoiesis --> extramedullary hematopoiesis is occuring
|
|
Which bones in adults are involved in hematopoiesis?
|
- mainly the sternum, ribs, and vertebrae
- long bones loses the abilitly in your 20s |
|
Which bones inthe fetus are involved in hematopoiesis?
|
- all of them --> why you can do a tibial bone marrow aspiration in peds onc. but not adults
|
|
Stem Cell properties?
|
- ability to differentiate into all hematopoietic lineages
- ability to maintain hematopoiesis over persons lifetime becuase the are self-renewing |
|
Embryonic stem cell
|
pluripotent
|
|
Adult stem cell
|
- more restricted differentiation
- multipotent adult progenitor cell |
|
Bone marrow stem cell
|
- hematopoited stem cell
- bone marrow stromal cell - multipotent stem cells |
|
What does granulopoiesis give rise to?
|
- neutrophils (PMNs)
- eosinophils - basophils |
|
Stages of Granulopoiesis
|
1. Myeloblast
2. Promyelocyte 3. Myelocyte 4. Metamyelocyte 5. Band Cell 6. Segmented Neutrophil |
|
When during the stages of granulopoiesis does the cell acquire primary granules?
|
Promylocyte
|
|
What is the last stage during granulopoiesis where division can occur? (ie. last stage for proliferation)
|
Myelocyte
|
|
When during the stages of granulopoiesis does the cell acquire specific granules?
|
Metamyelocyte
|
|
When during the stages of granulopoiesis does the nucleus start to indent?
|
Metamyelocyte
|
|
When during the stages of granulopoiesis does the nucleus become indented more than halfway?
|
Band cell
|
|
When during the stages of granulopoiesis does the cell become a mature neutrophil?
|
- when there are lobes and segmentation
|
|
Types of WBCs
|
1. Neutrophils
2. Eosinophils 3. Basophils 4. Monocytes 5. Lymphocytes (B and T) |
|
Types of Granulocytes
|
1. Neutrophils
2. Eosinophils 3. Basophils |
|
Eosinophils
|
- bilobed
- allergy cells - parasites - ROS |
|
Basophils
|
- mast cell when in tissues
- purple granules - histamine -- vasodilator - heparin -- blood thinner |
|
How long does granulopoiesis take?
|
~14 days
|
