  • Front
  • Back
bone marrow production begins
5 months gestation
hematopoeisis begins
full term infant
hematopoesis continues where
axial and proximal appendicular skeleton
extramedullary hematopoiesis
fatt marrow can convert back to a more hematopoietic marrow; sleep and liver can revery back to being hematopoietic in this
bone marrow components
cords (hematopoeitic cells)
venous sinuses (endothelial cells and surrounded by BM)
ROLE Of venous sinuses
collect mature cells and transport them into the blood
hematopoeitic elements and locations
erythroid precursors (adjacent to sinuses)
granuloctic precursors (deep in cord)
megakaryocytes (adjacent to sinuses)
accessory cells found in BM
stromal cells
fat cells
fibroblasts
macs
monos
lymphos
all cells of hte body are derived from what type of cell
the hematopoietic stem cell
general chain of events from hematopoietic stem cell
stem cell
committed stem cell
lymphoid or myeloid/erythroid lineage
progenitors of erythrocytes
pluripotent hematopoietic cell -> common myeloid progenitor ->megakaryocyte/erythrocyte progenitory -> erythroblast -> erythrocyte
what happens when erythroblast turns into erythrocyte
-cell becomes smaller
-chromatin progresses from fine to coarse
-nucleus is extruded
-cytoplasm changes from blue to pinkish-red due to synthesis of Hb
maturation sequence of erythrocyte
pronormoblast
basophilic normoblast
polychromatophilic normoblast
orthochromic normoblasts
reticulocyte
BFU-E vs CFU-E:
proliferative capacity
BFU > CFU
BFU-E vs CFU-E:
receptors
CFU > BFU
BFU-E vs CFU-E:
maturation
BFU to CFU with IL3, GM-CSF, TPO, kit ligand

CFU to pronormoblast with EPO
where is EPO made
renal peritubular intersitial cells or renal tubular cells

small amount made in liver
effect of EPO
-induces Hb synthesis
-CFU-E to pronormoblasts
-prevents apoptosis of RBC precursors
embryonic Hbs cease prodcution when?
4 months gestation
gene location of Beta
chrom 11
gene location of alpha
2 on chromosome 16
heme synthesis precursors
glycine
succinyl-CoA
heme synthesis location
Mi
cytosol
control of heme synthesis
negative feedback loop
disorders of heme synthesis are known as
prophyrias
heme synthesis pathway
succinyl CoA + glycine
ALA
PBG
uroporphyrinogens
coproporphyrinogen
protoporphyrinogen
heme
porphyrias
Acute intermittent
Congenital erythropoietic
Prophyria cutanea tarda
Hereditary coproporphyria
Variegate prophyria
erythrocpoietic Protoprophyria
clincial characteristics of porphyrias
skin leasions on sun-exposed areas and acute neurovisceral attacks characterized by abdominal pain, peripheral neuropathy, and mental disturbances
skin lesions are due to
porphytin-catalyzed photo damage
acute neurovisceral attacks are due to
increased production to delta-amino levulinic acid (ALA)
acute porphyrias
A
H
V
ALA
nonacute porphyrias
C
P
P
lead poisoning effect on heme synthesis
lead causes and intracellular iron deficiency so that Zn replaces iron as substrate for ferrochelatase

-ALAD and COP inhibition
-increases urinary ALA and coproporphyrinIII excretion
-causes accumulation of Zn protoporphyrin in erythrocytes
microscopic indications of lead poisoning
basophilic stippling
-lead interferes with ribosomal RNA breakdown, causing undegraded ribosomes to aggregate
characteristics of reticulocyte
larger than mature RBC
bluer cytoplasm
less central pallor
what makes up the reticulum
RNA
polyribosomes
degenerating organelles
lifespan of reticulum
2 days in BM
1 day in PB
removed by spleen
physical characteristics of erythrocytes
6-8 microns in diameter
biconcave disc
no nucleus
120 day lifespan
variation in size
anisocytosis
variation in shape
poikilocytosis
amount of color
chromia
decreased Hb per RBC
hypochromia
increased Hb per RBC
hyperchromia
bluer than normal

why?
polychromatophilic

immature RBC
pappenheimer bodies
ferric iron; siderotic granule
cabot ring
mitotic spindle remnant
basophilic stipping
precipitated RNA
babesia
parasite inclusions
reticulum inclusions
ribosomes/deg organelles
Hb H inclusion
precipitate of beta globin chains
Heinz bodies
denatured Hb
howel-jolly body
fragmented DNA
