topic 2 Flashcards
cell death by lethal chemical, biological or physical events
necrosis
programmed cell death regulated by genetic material of cell
apoptosis
Blood cell formation – production and development
hematopoiesis
sole site of effective hematopoiesis in normal adults
bone marrow
These cells are present in the first few hours after an ovum is fertilized
the most versatile type of stem cell, can develop into any human cell type, including development from embryo into fetus.
Totipotential stem cells.
These cells are present several days after fertilization.
can develop into any cell type, except they cannot develop into a fetus.
Pluripotential stem cells
These cells are derived from pluripotent stem cells. They can be found in adults, but they are limited to specific types of cells to form tissues. For example, bone marrow stem cells can produce all types of blood cells, bone cartilage, and adipose (fat) cells.
Multipotential stem cells
These cells are derived from pluripotent stem cells. They can be found in adults, but they are limited to specific types of cells to form tissues. For example, bone marrow stem cells can produce all types of blood cells, bone cartilage, and adipose (fat) cells.
Multipotential stem cells
Appearance of different properties in cells
Differentiation
Appearance of different properties in cells
Differentiation
▶ Cells derived from common precursors take separate routes
▶ Maturation occurs from commitment to fully developed cell
Commitment
Three developmental periods
▶ Mesoblastic ▶ Hepatic
▶ Myeloid
Three developmental periods
▶ Mesoblastic ▶ Hepatic
▶ Myeloid
▶ Blood islands of yolk sac
▶ Primarily RBC production
▶ Embryonic hemoglobin produced
MESOBLASTIC
▶ At 6 weeks cell production in liver
▶ Fetal hemoglobin produced
▶ Spleen, thymus, lymph nodes also active production
HEPATIC
