Hematopoiesis II: Bone Marrow Flashcards
describe lymphoid tissue
tissue that contains lymphoid stem cells. lymphoid line gives rise to B and T lymphocytes
describe meyloid tissue
tissue that contains myeloid stem cells. meyloid line gives rise to erythrocytes, platelets, eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils, monocytes
describe the process of blood cell renewal
stem cells (highest potentiality/self-renewing
progenitor cells
precursor cells (blasts): mitotic activity influence of growth factors
mature cells: mature morph and function
pleuripotential stem cell
embryonic stem cell, can self-renew or become committed, low mitotic activity, have potential to develop into several different types of mature cells
multipotential stem cell
adult stem cells, can develop into one or more types of cells, more limited that pleuripotential; low mitotic activity
progenitor
parent cell of each cell type; high mitotic activity; self-renewing; common in marrow or lymphoid organs; mono- or bipotential
percursor cell
stage of blood cell growth that comes just before mature cell; high mitotic activity; not self-renewing; common in marrow or lymphoid organs; mono-potential
colony forming cell
equivalent to CFU (colony forming unit); NO mitotic activity; abundant in blood and hematopoietic organs

discuss the 5 major changes that occur to a cell during erythropoeisis
- cell size decreases
- chromatin becomes more condensed
- nuclear size decreases
- amount of mRNA decreases
- amount of hemoglobin increases
how is erythropoiesis controlled?
erythropoietin, secreted by the kidneys; kidneys have oxygen sensors that can stimulate erythropoiesis if necessary
