Hematology Week 1: Intro Flashcards
Cells produced in the Bone marrow
11 listed
Do lymphocyte numbers reflect ongoing bone marrow activity?
No, Lymphocytes are long-lived cells and recirculate in the blood and therefore, lymphocyte numbers do not reflect ongoing bone marrow activity
hematopoiesis in fetuses, children and adults
Typical site for a bone marrow biopsy?
Posterior iliac crest
Hematopoietic stem cell division
Hematopoietic stem cell division daughter cells
- Daughter cells are not identical
- 1 daughter cell is capable of maturation the other remains a Hematopoietic Stem Cell
Hematopoietic stem cell division results in?
1 multipotent progenitor cell
which can become a myeloid progenitor cell or a common lymphoid progenitor cell
which then divides to become progeny cells which have the same genetic composition as the progenitor cells
hematopoiesis lineages are controlled by?
Stimulatory factors such as cytokines
Lymphoid Stem Cell ->
Lymphoblast
Lymphoblast ->
3 possible
- B Lymphocyte
- T Lymphocyte
- Natural Killer Cells
Myeloid Stem Cell ->
3 possible
Myeloblast
RBC
Platelets
Myeloblast ->
4 possible
Granulocytes
Eosinophils
Neutrophils
Basophils
Bone marrow is produced from?
Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Bone Marrow microenvironment consists of
Neutrophil maturation
stain used to detect granulocytic cells
Myeloperoxidase cytochemical stain (MPO)
Neutrophil cell types commonly found in the bone marrow
Neutrophil cell types commonly found in the blood
Where are immature cells in the bone marrow?
Where are neutrophils stored?
A release of Neutrophil storage compartment
and get a left shift to immaturity
GCSF causes
causes left shift to immaturity dumping immature cells into the blood
Left shift to immaturity
Causes of granulocyte reserve release
Granulopoiesis progenitor
myeloblast
Granulopoiesis key cytokine
G-CSF (Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor)
G-CSF (Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor) is produced by?
several cell types
G-CSF AKA
Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor
Granulopoiesis cycle time
10-14 days from myeloblast to neutrophil
Granulopoiesis ANC value indicates
Reflects adequacy of granulopoiesis
ANC AKA
Absolute Neutrophil Count
Neutrophil Lifespan in Blood
3-5 hours
Erythropoiesis progenitor
erythroblast
Erythroid colonies surrounding macrophage
Macrophages store iron
macrophages might give iron to RBCs
iron deficiencies result in a deficiency in these cell lines
Just RBCs
iron is bound to
transferrin
iron is stored as?
hemosiderin
in order for a normoblast to become a reticulocyte they must?
Eject their nucleus
Ejected nucleus fate?
Macrophage ingest ejected nuclei
Erythropoiesis progenitor
Erythroblast
