Q

Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSC)

A
  • Self-renewing
  • Some remain stem cells & others form differentiated cells (multipotent)
  • No specific morphology other than surface markers

19
Q

What regulates Erythropoiesis and where is it produced?

A

Erythropoietin
(Kidney cortex Peritubular interstitial fibroblast-like cells)

20
Q

How exactly is Erythropoietin produced

A

Low O2 in Kidney signals using Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) , producing EPO

21
Q

Thrombopoiesis

A

Formation of Platelets from same myeloid path.
Promegakaryocytes, Megakaryocytes, Thrombocytes (platelets)

22
Q

Megakaryocyes

A
  • Very large 60 um
  • Lots of duplicated DNA
  • Reduplication without mitosis
  • Processes extend into blood vessels and disintegrate to form Platelets
23

A

Thrombopoietin
(Liver, sometimes Kidney)

24

Q

What does RH+ mean?

A

It has a D antigen also present on RBC
You only get this by Immunization

32
Q
