4- hematopoiesis and bone marrow eval Flashcards
In the extravascular space what is the stromal elements of the hematopoietic microenvironment
Stromal elements: endothelial cells, reticular (fibroblast-like) cells, adipocytes and extracellular matrix
in the extravascular space what are the accessory cells of the hematopoietic microenvironment
accessory cells: macrophages, T and B lymphocytes
what are the types hematopoietic cells
- hematopoietic stem cells (HSC)
- hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC)
- recognizable blood cell precursors
- mature leukocyte storage pools, esp neutrophils
what are bone marrow stromal cells produced by
produced by mesenchymal stem cells
what do endothelial cells do in regards to bone marrow
they regulate the trans endothelial movement of cells btwn blood and them marrow extravascular space
what do reticular cells do in regards to bone marrow
fibroblastic-type cells they provide structural support for the bone marrow
what do both endothelial cells and reticular cells do
- synthesis of growth factor and extracellular matrix
- also support hematopoiesis through cell-cell contact

HSCs and HPCs have what kind of appearance
lymphocyte appearance
HSCs are generally…
**positive for the CD34 surface antigen **
—- early HPCs are also CD34+
what is CD an abbreviation for
clusters of differentiation antigens
what are the properties of Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)
- proliferation
-sustained self replication - replicate slowly (once every 8-10 weeks)
- capacity to differentiate into all blood cell types and some tissue cell types (macrophages, dendritic cells, osteoclasts, mast cells)
- <0.0001% of nucleated cells in cat marrow
what do hematopoietic stem cells produce
common lymphoid progenitor (CLP)
— B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, NK cells
common myeloid progenitor (CMP)
— non-lymphoid blood cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, osteoclasts, mast cells
what are the properties of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs)
- proliferation
- limited self replication - not sustained without replenishment from HSCs
- replicate more rapidly than HSCs
- differentiation but with more restricted lineage potential than HSCs
- about 1% of bone marrow cells in adults, but higher in neonates
what are hematopoietic growth factors (HGFs)
HGFs are glycoprotein cytokines that promote the proliferation, maturation, and survival of hematopoietic cells
—— HGF includes colony stimulating factors (CSFs), interleukins and poietins
where are hematopoietic growth factors produced
HGFs are produced locally in the marrow (paracrine and autocrine) and/or by cells in peripheral tissues (endocrine ex. erythropoietin from the kidney)
what are the early acting factors of HGFs
early acting factors include stem cell factor (SCF) and fIt3 ligand (FL). these factors require the presence of other cytokines
what are the intermediate-acting factors for HGFs
The intermediate-acting factors include IL3 and GM-CSF
what are the late acting factors for HGFs
late acting factors include G-CSF, M-CSF, EPO, TPO, and IL5
what types of indirect stimulation causes the release of HGFs
during inflammation, TNFa, and IL1 stimulate stromal and accessory cells to release various HGFs

what are erythroid islands
-erythroid cells develop around macrophages
- macrophages help create microenvironment
- phagocytize expelled nuclei and damaged or aged erythrocytes
- store iron released from phagocytized erythrocytes

Explain the properties of reticulocytes
- formed when metarubicytes expel their nuclei, usually while still bound to macrophages
- one rubriblast produces about 16 reticulocytes in about 4 days
- reticulocyte maturation occurs in marrow, blood, and spleen, depending on the species
what does erythropoietin (EPO) do
—- glycoprotein growth factor
promotes proliferation, differentiation, and survival erythroid progenitor cells and early erythroid precursors (ex rubriblasts)
inhibition of apoptosis is the main mechanism of action
what are the sites of EPO synthesis
renal interstitial cells (primary site in adults)
- increased synthesis in response to tissue hypoxia in the kidney
extrarenal production
- liver, especially in the mammalian fetus
- bone marrow macrophages and erythroid cells
neutrophil production slide 28
what are the neutrophilic growth factors
- early and intermediate acting factors
G-CSF - late acting factor
— granulocyte progenitors to myeloblasts
— increased cell division, decrease marrow transit time
Cells producing various growth factors
– fibroblasts and endothelial cells
– T lymphocytes and mononuclear phagocytes
