Lec 23 Flashcards
Hematopoiesis
Blood cell synthesis in the bone marrow
Hemostasis
blood clotting
blood is – percent of body weight
7
what kind of tissue is
connective
how many liters in male and female
5l and 4l
explain blood tissue compostion
1- watery ECM (plasma)
2- RBC (erythrocytes)
3- WBC (leukocytes)
4- Platelets
ecm bone vs blood
bone=rigid
blood=watery
RBC main function
gas transport
WBC main function
immune function
platelets main function
hemostasis
platelets are
cellular elements that used to be a giant cells
not cells
hematocrit
percentage of total blood volume that is occupied by RBC
hematocrit in males
40-54
hematocrit in female
37-47
plasma volume percentage
58%
white cells percentage
<1%
white cell physical function in blood
buffer layer
plateletes and white cells between plasma and rbc
whithin active bone marrow – become rbc and rest become wbc
25%
rbc lifespan
120 days
wbc lifespan
6-12 hours
—– smashes to produce platelets
megakaryocyte
hematopoietic stem cell can become
wbc
rbc
platelets
cytokines
proteins released from 1 cell that affect activity of others
cytokines involved in hematopoiesis
1- erythropoietin (ETO)
2- thrombopoietin (TPO)
erythropoietin site of production and influence growth on
produce in kidney
influence on growth rbc
thrombopoitenin site of production and influence growth on
produce in liver
influence on growth wbc
