Unit 2 Hematopoiesis Flashcards
PPT and Discussion based
Formation of blood cells
Hematopoiesis
Continuous, regulated process of renewal, proliferation, differentiation and maturation of all blood cell lines
Hematopoiesis
Two types of hematopoiesis
Prenatal and Postnatal
Erythropoiesis
Leukopoiesis (myelopoiesis, lymphopoiesis)
Megakaryopoiesis
Hematopoiesis
3 stages of prenatal hematopoiesis
1 Mesoblastic period
2 Hepatic period
3 Myeloid/Medullary period
Prenatal Hematopoiesis during Fetal development
Mesoblastic period
Hepatic period
Prenatal hematopoiesis
Starts during fetal development and persistent throughout
Myeloid/Medullary period
begins as early as the nineteenth day after fertilization in the yolk sac of the embryo
mesoblastic period (primitive erythropoiesis)
only erythrocytes are made (primitive erythropoiesis)
Mesoblastic period
Mesoblastic period
RBCs contain unique fetal hemmoglobins
Gower-1
Gower-2
Portland
Mesoblastic period occurs ___
intravascularly because wala pang developed blood sep
Start of hemohlobin production at
Primitive hemoglobin
Begins around 5-7 gestational weeks
Hepatic period
Becomes the chief site of blood cell production
Fetal liver
Organs contributing to hematopoiesis
Spleen
Kidney
Thymus
Lymph nodes
Hepatic period occurs
Extravascularly (kasi may blood vessesls na)
Beginning of definitive hematopoiesis
Hepatic period
Megakaryopoiesis begins
Hepatic period
Hgb F and adult hemoglobins
Hepatic period
Begins at the 4th to 5th month of fetal development
Myeloid/Medullary Period
Occurs in the medulla of bone marrow
Myeloid/Medullary period
By the end of 24th weeks of gestation, it becomes the primary site
Bone Marrow
Detectable levels of
EPO, G-CSF,GM-CSF
Fetal Hgb and Adult Hgb
Myeloid/Medullary period
