Morphology of Erythryopoiesis Flashcards
Totipotent stem cells
Can turn into anything
Pluripotent stem cells turn into?
Turns into any cell besides foetal cells.
Multipotent stem cells
Committed to self-renewal of limited tissue cells.
Multipotent stem cell commits to the?
Erythryoid program (becoming an erythroid progenitor cell)
Burst forming unit-erythryoid (BFU-E) turns into?
Colony forming unit-erythryoid (CFU-E)
Erythryoid precursor
This is the expression of the erythroid program which occurs several divisions later. Erythroid precursor is morphogenically distinguishable
Earliest erythryoid cell is?
Proerythryoblast
Proerythryoblast is identified by the?
Identified by the accumulation of erythryoid specific proteins and decreased nuclear activity.
List stages of development of mature red blood cells
- Proerythryoblast
- Basophilic erythryoblast
- Polychromatic erythryoblast
- Pyknotic erythryoblast
- Reticulocyte
- Mature red blood cell
Splenic macrophages removes?
Removes the nucleus of proerythryoblast.
Reticulocyte is?
Brand new red cell
Reticulocyte is formed when?
Splenic macrophages removes the nucleus of proerythryoblast
Reticulocytes have no?
Have no central pallor as seen in mature RBCs
How long until deficiencies are recognized when reticulocytes enter blood circulation?
6-9 days
Bone marrow proliferation maturation takes?
3-5 days
