Q

Those in the lymphoid lineage

A
  1. Pre-NK cells; go into blood become NK cells; go into CT; stay NK cells
  2. Pre-T cells; go into blood become T-cells; go to CT; stay T-cells
  3. Pre-B cells; go into blood become B-cell; in the CT, they can remain B-cells or form plasma cells.

Q

CMP (CFU-GEMM) lineage

A

CMP (CFU-GEMM) will then become:

  1. GMP/ CFU-GMP (granulocyte-monocyte progenitor)
  2. MEP (megakaryocyte- erythrocyte progenitor)

Q

MEP lineage

A
  1. MKP (CFU-Meg)- megakaryocyte progenitor–> megakaryoblast–> megakaryocyte all in the bone marrow and then release platelets into the blood
  2. ErP (CFU-E) erythrocyte progenitors–> proerythroblast–> orthochromatophilic erythroblast and then become RBC in the blood.

Q

BMCP

A

Basophil/mast cell progenitor will create

  1. Basophil progenitors (BaP/CFU-Ba ) in the bone marrow. They will become basophils in the blood and remain in the blood
  2. Mast cell progenitors (MCP) are made in CT and become mast cells in the CT
