Q

What characterizes aplastic anemia?

A

hypocellular bone marrow

meaning that the bone marrow is mostly adipose tissue and there is a lack of hematopoietic activity

22
Q

How long does erythropoiesis take?

A

7 days

23
Q

What hormone regulates erythropoiesis?

A

eryhtropoietin

24

In erythropoiesis what happens to cells size as the process progresses?

A

it decreases

25
Q

What is the largest cells in the erythropoiesis process?

A

proerythroblast

26
Q

What is the smallest cell in the erythropoiesis process?

A

erythrocyte

27

A

stage 2

28
Q

What is the cell progression in erythropoiesis?

A

29
Q

What is the last stage in erythropoiesis where the cell contains a nucleus ?

A

step 5; as a normocyte

30
Q

What is the largest cell during leukopoiesis?

A

promyleocyte

31

What are the cell stages of leukopoiesis?

A
  1. myeloid stem cell
  2. promyelocyte
  3. myelocyte
  4. metamyelocyte
  5. band cell (only neutrophils)
  6. mature granulocytes

“My prophyte make me made so I must be neutral somtimes”

32
Q

What granules are produced in leukopoiesis step 3?

A

primary and secondary granules

33
Q

What color to eosinophils stain?

A

pink/orange

34
Q

What color to basophils stain?

A

dark purple

35
Q

What color do neutrophils stain?

A

purple

36
Q

Which mature granulocytes are multi-lobe?

A

neutrophils and eosinophils

37
Q

Which cell can leave the blood and migrate into tissue to become macrophages?

A

monocytes

38
Q

Where are monocytes produced?

A

bone marrow

39
Q

What happens to b-cells when the migrate into tissues?

A

the become plasma cells

40
Q

Which cells are the only cells that can recirculate in the blood?

A

lymphocytes

41
Q

Where are agranulocytes produced?

A

T-cells –> thymus
B-cells –> bone marrow

42
Q

What is the function of the thymus?

A

to produce t-cells

43
Q

What type of organ is the thymus?

A

primary lymphoid organ

44
Q

What are the three main parts of the thymus structure?

A

capsule, cortex, and medulla

45
Q

The darker cortex of the thymus contain which type of cells?

A

immature t-cells

46
Q

The lighter cortex of the thymus contains which type of cells?

A

mature t-cells

47
Q

What characteristic cell of the thymus is responsible for development and maturation of t-cells (thrombocytes)?

A

epithelioreticular cells (nurse cells)

48
Q

Why is it that the thymus lacks b-cell interaction?

A

bc it lacks lymphatic nodules

49
Q

Which condition is assoc. w lack of nurse cells (epithelioreticular cells)

A

DiGeorge Syndrome
