Hematology Flashcards
Plasma versus serum
Only plasma has clotting factors
Ankyrin
Anchors RBC microfilaments to plasma membrane. One of proteins that car be mutated in hereditary spherocytosis.
Band neutrophils
Immature, notfully segmented
Seen in bm and active infection whenthere is mass neutrophil release
Hypersegmented neutrophils
Abnormal maturati due to B 12 and folate deficiencies
Basophilicspecific granules contain…
Histamine and heparin
Basophilia in which cancer
. CM L
Bernard soulier syndrome
Platelet disorder
Loss of gpib ie adhesion to vessel walls
Bleeding
Glanzmann thrombasthenin /
Platelet disorder
Loss ofGP2b/3a receptors ie platelet aggregation
Bleeding
Myeloid toerythroid range in bm
2-4 m: 1 e
Blast cells are replaced with… At a rate of about… % per decade in bm
Adipose
10%
First differentiated stage myeloid
Promyelocyte
First stage of specificgranulation myeloid
Myclocyte
Para-aortic lymph nodes
Kidneys, ovaries, uterus, testes
Cervical lymph nodes
Head and neck
Hisar lymphnodes
Lungs
Mediastinaltymphnodes
Trachea andesophogus
Axillazy lymph nodes
/ Upper limbbreast and skin aboveembilicus
Celiac lymph nodes
Liver stomachspleen pancreas upper duodenum
Sm lymph nods
Lover duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon thrusplenic-feare
I’m lymph nodes
Colon from splenic plexure upper rectum
Internal iliaclymphnores
Lower rectum, bladder, vagina, cervix,prostate
Superficial inguind lymph nodes
Anal canal, skin below umbilicus, scrotum, vulva
Popliteal lymphnodes
Dorsolateral foot and posterior calf
Stave cells
Physicallyform filter in red pulp to remove damaged or aged RB Cs
Pentose phosphate pathway
Detour fromglycolysic
To make nadph
Membrane antioxidant
2,3- bpg
Glycolysis detour
Enhances O2 release
G6pd
Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase
Involved in reduction of nadp+ to nadph
Mutation —> RBC damage
Porphyria
Family ofdisorders related to interruptedheme metabolism
Sideroblastic anemia
Defect in heme synthesis at Ala synthase first step
Due to B6deficiency
Possible sfx ofisoniazid For TB
Bilirubin
Ultimateproduct of heme breakdown
Unconjgated travels thru body via albumin
Conjugated by liver to be water soluble
Converted tourobili nogen by gut bacteria
Re absorbed or excreted in bile, urine
Gilbert syndrome
Decreased activity of UDP glucuronyltransferase ie bilirubinconjugation leading to jaundice on physical stress illness orexertion
Hepcidin
’ Iron transportmolecule
Mutation leads to uncheckedexport from enterocytes and macrophages ie iron overload inblood
Hereditary hemochromocjosis
Ferritin
BindsFerricironinside of enterocyes and macrophages
Catalyst neutralizer and storage reservoir
Ferroportin
Transports iron across enterocyte or macrophage membrane into blood
Transferrin
Binds ferric iron for transport in blood
Deferoxamine
Iron Che later
Fanconi anemia
Hereditary aplasticanemia
Short stature, cafe an laïi spots,radial and thumb defects
Hydroxyurea
’ Sickle cell t x
Increases fetalhemogeobin
Infective stagemalaria
Sporozite
Feeding stage malaria
Trophozite
Lives in RBCand feeds on hemoglobin
Shizont
Replication phase of malaria in liver cells
Chloroquine
Malaria drug
Preventsconversion of toxic hemoglobin . breakdown product fpix into neutral hemozoin by malarial heme polymerase
Thus fpix kills malaria
