lecture 6-7 Hematopoiesis Flashcards
hematopoietic stem cells leads to ___
every type of blood cells
Blood is:
- body fluid that delivers nutrients and oxygen to cells and transports waste
- blood cells suspended in blood plasma
- type of connective tissue
why is blood considered a connective tissue
- embryologically, mesoderm layer origin
- blood connects the body systems together
Major cell types in circulating blood are
- enucleated or nucleated(bird) erythrocytes (red blood cells)
- mono and poly nucleated leukocytes or white blood cells
white blood cells are
leukocytes
red blood cell other name is
erythrocytes
composition of blood
- 45% formed elements
- 55% plasma
formed elements of blood
45% of blood
-red blood cells (erythrocytes)
transport O2 and CO2
-white blood cells (leukocytes)
fight infection
-platelets (thrombocytes)
form clots
plasma part of blood
55% of blood
-Water 90% of plasma
-Plasma proteins 8% of plasma
Globulins
Fibrinogen
-Salts 1 %
-Gases, Nutrients, Wastes, Hormones
what is the function of water in blood
major part (90%) of the plasma
maintains blood volume, transports molecules
what is the function of plasma proteins
8% of plasma
maintains blood osmotic pressure and pH
Globulins: transport and fight infection
Fibrinogen: Blood clotting
what are two plasma proteins and what do they do
Globulins: transport and fight infection
Fibrinogen: Blood clotting
What function does salt have on blood
1% of plasma
maintain blood osmotic pressure and pH, aid metabolism
what function does gases have on blood
O2 and CO2- cellular respiration
what function does nutrients have on blood
lipids, glucose, and amino acids
food for cells
What function does waste have in blood
urea and uric acid
end product of metabolism, excretion by kidneys
What function does hormones have in blood
aid metabolism
type of white blood cells
neutrophils (40-70%)
lymphocytes (20-45%)
monocytes (4-8%)
eosinophils (1-4%)
basophils (0-1%)
mixture of methylene blue and derivates of azure blue and eosin
romanowsky dye
nucleus: purple
hemoglobin: pink or tan
Leukocytes: blue to blue grey
Granules
eosinophilic: red
Basophilic: blue
Neutral: stain neither
label
band cell is immature white blood cell, shouldn’t be in slide
aspirate of bone marrow
gives a jumble of all cells from that area
suspension of cells
biopsy of bone marrow shows
organized structure of bone marrow
accumulating abnormal numbers or types of cells means ___
disorders
cancers, severity and metastasis (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, anemia, pancytopenia, parasites and infection)
___ can be missed in aspirate and may require biopsy
lymphoma
