HEMA DAY 2 Flashcards
This refers to a continuous, regulated process of blood cell production that includes cell renewal, proliferation, differentiation, and maturation.

MESOBLASTIC or YOLK SALC PHASE
- Begins around __th day of embryonic development after fertilization
- Early in embryonic development, cells from the mesoderm migrate to the yolk sac
- Formation of primitive erythroblast in the central cavity of the yolk sac
- The first lineage produced from a developing embryo is the RBC.
- Stage for embryonic or primitive hematopoiesis
- These primitive but transient yolk sac erythroblasts are important in early embryogenesis to produce hemoglobin (Gower-1, Gower-2, and Portland)
1. Gower-1
2. Gower-2
3. Portland
_______________ are primitive hemoglobins formed by immature erythrocytes in the yolk sac. These hemoglobins include Gower I, Gower II, and Portland types. They are found in the human embryo and persist until approximately _________ of gestation
Embryonic hemoglobins are primitive hemoglobins formed by immature erythrocytes in the yolk sac. These hemoglobins include Gower I, Gower II, and Portland types. They are found in the human embryo and persist until approximately 12 weeks of gestation

This is when the RBC lineage is formed
Mesoblastic phase
This is when the WBC and platelets start to form
Hepatic phase
This term refers to the hematopoiesis where all blood cells are allowed to form
Definitive hematopoiesis
HEPATIC PHASE
- The hepatic phase of hematopoiesis begins at ___ to ___ week of gestation
- By the second month of gestation, the _____ becomes the major site of hematopoiesis
- Characterized by recognizable clusters of developing _____________, ______________, and ______________ colonizing the ______________, __________, __________, __________, and ultimately the _____________ in the final medullary phase.
- Production of ________________ also begins during the hepatic phase
- Hematopoiesis during this phase occurs __________, with the liver remaining the major site of hematopoiesis during the second trimester of fetal life
- During the hepatic phase, ______________ is the predominant hemoglobin, but detectable levels of ______________ may be present
- Stage for the beginning of ____________ with a decline primitive hematopoiesis in the yolk sac
HEPATIC PHASE
- The hepatic phase of hematopoiesis begins at 5th to 7th week of gestation
- By the second month of gestation, the liver becomes the major site of hematopoiesis
- Characterized by recognizable clusters of developing erythroblasts, granulocytes, and monocytes colonizing the fetal liver, thymus, spleen, placenta, and ultimately the bone marrow space in the final medullary phase.
- Production of megakaryocytes also begins during the hepatic phase
- Hematopoiesis during this phase occurs extravascularly, with the liver remaining the major site of hematopoiesis during the second trimester of fetal life
- During the hepatic phase, fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) is the predominant hemoglobin, but detectable levels of adult hemoglobin (Hb A) may be present
- Stage for the beginning of definitive hematopoiesis with a decline primitive hematopoiesis in the yolk sac

Cells is present in the first few hours after an ovum is fertilized; most versatile stem cell; can develop into any human cell type; development from embryo into fetus
Totipotential stem cell
Cells present several days fertilization; cannot form into a fetus
Pluripotential stem cell
Derived from pluripotential stem cells; can be found in adults, but are limited to specific types of cells to form tissues
Multipotential stem cell
This refers to the theory that all blood cells are derived from a single progenitor stem cell — pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell; Most widely accepted theory
Monophyletic theory
This theory suggests that each blood cell lineages is derived from its own unique stem cell
Polyphyletic theory
