Lecture 13 Flashcards
List characteristics of hematopoietic stem cells.
Are pluripotent (committed to either myeloid or lymphoid stem cell lines)
Can self-renew
Produce one of 2 kinds of multipotential precursor cells
Cannot be identified by morphology but can be recognized by cell surface markers
Compare Myeloid and Lymphoid multipotential precursor cells that are produced by hematopoietic stem cells
Myeloid: gives rise to all blood cell lines except lymphocytes
Lymphoid: give rise to lymphocytes
List the five categories of leukocytes and indicate which are granulocytes and which are agranulocytes.
Neutrophils (granulocyte)
Basophils (granulocyte)
Eosinophils (granulocyte)
Monocytes (agranulocyte)
Lymphocytes (agranulocyte)
what is the end product of Erythroid CFU’s
produces RBC’s
what is the end product of Megakaryocyte CFU’s
produces platelet-forming cells

Describe the role of ferrotransferrin in the transfer and uptake of iron
Ferrotransferin binds to a transferrin receptor dimer and is then internalized into the cell
describe the process of iron transfer and reuptake in a cell (be sure to mention ferrotransferrin and apotransferritin)
The low pH value in the endosome that endocytoses the ferrotransferrin-transferrin receptor complex, dissociates Fe3+ into the cytosol of the cell and what’s still bound to the transferrin receptor is known as apoferritin
The Apoferritin-transferrin receptor complex is then returned to the plasma membrane where the neutral pH allows apoferritin to dissociate from the transferrin receptor, into the extracellular space
List the 3 major groups of hematopoietic growth factors
Colony-stimulating factors
Erythropoietin and Thrombopoietin
Cytokines (primarily interleukins)
