wk 1 Flashcards
continuous, regulated process of blood cell
production
HEMATOPOIESIS
- In healthy adults hematopoiesis is
restricted primarily to the
bone marrow.
can be characterized as a select
distribution of embryonic cells in specific
sites that rapidly change during
development
HEMATOPOIETIC SYSTEM
cell is capable of self-renewal (i.e.,
replenishment) and directed differentiation
into all required cell lineages.
HEMATOPOIETIC STEM
- 19th day of embryonic development
MESOBLASTIC PHASE
Some of the cells from primitive
erythroblasts in the central cavity of the yolk
sac
MESOBLASTIC PHASE
MESOBLASTIC PHASE
19th day of embryonic development
- Cells from mesoderm migrate to the yolk
sac
- Some of the cells from primitive
erythroblasts in the central cavity of the yolk
sac
Primitive erythroblasts are important
Early embryonic development
- Produces hemoglobin needed for delivery of
oxygen to rapidly developing embryonic
tissues
● Cells of mesodermal origin also migrate to
the aorta-gonadmesonephros (AGM) region
and give rise to hematopoietic stem cells
(HSCs) for definitive or permanent adult
hematopoiesis
only site of definitive hematopoiesis
during embryonic development.
AGM Region
- 5 to 7 gestational weeks
HEPATIC PHASE
clusters of developing erythroblasts,
granulocytes, and monocytes colonizing the
fetal liver, thymus, spleen, placenta, and
ultimately the bone marrow space in the
final medullary phase.
HEPATIC PHASE
- Developing erythroblasts signal the
beginning of definitive hematopoiesis
with decline inprimitive hematopoiesis of
yolk sac - Lymphoid cells begin to appear
HEPATIC PHASE
Occurs extravascularly, with the liver
remaining the major site of
hematopoiesis during the second trimester
of fetal life
HEPATIC PHASE
Hematopoiesis in AGM region and yolk sac
disappear during this stage
HEPATIC PHASE
peak and min activity iof hepatic hase
Hematopoiesis in fetal liver reaches its
peak by third month of fetal
development, gradually declines after
sixth month , retaining minimal activity until
1 to 2 weeks after birth
Hematopoietic activity, especially myeloid
activity, is apparent during this stage
MEDULLARY PHASE
14th and 15th month begins between fourth
and fifth month of fetal developme
MEDULLARY PHASE
Myeloid-to-erythroid ratio gradually
approaches
3:1 to 4:1 (normal adult levels)
By the end of ___________, bone
marrow becomes the primary site of
hematopoiesis
By the end of 24 weeks’ gestation, bone
marrow becomes the primary site of
hematopoiesis
consists of the bone
marrow and thymus and is where T and B
lymphocytes are derived
Primary lymphoid tissue -
where lymphoid
cells respond to foreign antigens, consists of the
spleen, lymph nodes, and mucosa-associated
lymphoid tissue
Secondary lymphoid tissue -
- projections of calcified bone
TRABACULAE
forming a three dimensional matrix
resembling a honeycomb
Trabeculae
Two major componensts of normal marrow:
Red marrow
- active marrow
- composed of developing blood cells and
their progenitors
Yellow Marrow
- inactive marrow
- composed primarily of adipocytes (fat cells)
with undeffirentiated mesenchymel cells and
macrophages - scattered throughout the red marrow so that
in adults, there is approximately equal amounts of red and yellow marrow in these
areas - capable of reverting back to active marrow
in cases of increased demand on the bone
marrow, such as in excessive blood loss or
hemolysi
WHEMNN - all
the bones in the body contain primarily red (active)
marrow
nfancy and Early Childhoood
adipocytes
become more abundant and begin to occupy the
spaces in the long bones previously dominated by
active marrow.
Between 5 and 7 years of age - a
rocess of replacing the active marrow by
adipocytes (yellow marrow) during
development
Retrogression
Bone Marrow Composition
STROMAL, HEMATOPOIOTIC, BV
reguation of hematopoietic system and
progenitor cell survival and differentiation
STROMAL CELL
they play a role in regulating the volume of
the marrow in which active hematopoiesis
occur
Adipocytes
ecrete cytokines or growth factors (may
positively stimulate HSC numbers and bone
homeostasis
ADIPOCYTE
form an incomplete layer of cells on the
abluminal surface of the vascular sinuses
Reticular Aventitial Cells
extend long, reticular fibers into the
perivascular space that form a supporting
lattice for the developing hematopoietic cells
Reticular Aventitial Cells
composed of the hematopoietic cells and
macrophages arranged in extravascular CORDS
RED MARROW
spaces between the vascular sinuses IN RED MARROW
CORD
spaces between the vascular sinuses.
CORDS
erythroid precursors
- develop in small clusters, and the more
mature forms are located adjacent to the
outer surfaces of the vascular sinuses.
Erythroblasts
adjacent to the walls of the vascular
sinuses
Megakaryotes
acilitates the release of platelets into the
lumen of the sinus
Megakaryotes
Immature myeloid (granulocytic) cells
LOC
- through the metamyelocyte stage are
located deep within the cords. - As they mature, they move closer to the
vascular sinuses
Supplement nutrient and oxygen
requirements of the marrow
Periosteal arteries
Periosteal arteries
ENTER BLOODSTREAM VIA
FORAMINA
Arteriole branches that enter the inner lining
of cortical bone (endosteum) form sinusoids
endosteum (endosteal beds),
provides nutrients for
osseous bone and marrow
Periosteal arteries
Hematopoietic cells located in endosteal
bed receive their nutrients from
nutrient
arterY
form an extracellular matrix in the
niche to promote cell adhesion and regulate HSCs
through complex signaling networks involving
cytokines, adhesion molecules, and maintenance
proteins
Stromal cells
regulate migration of HSC to vascular
niche
CXCL12
major site of blood cell production during the
second trimester of fetal development
LIVER
major site of blood cell production during second trimester of fetal development
LIVER
hepatocytes have many
functions:
● Protein synthesis and degradation
● Coagulation factor synthesis
● Carbohydrate and lipid metabolism
● Drug and toxin clearance
● Iron recycling and storage
● Hemoglobin degradation, in which bilirubin
is conjugated and transported to small
intestine for eventual excretion
Lumen of sinusoids contains
Kupffer cells
that maintain contact with endothelial cell
lining
macrophages that remove senescent cells
and foreign debris from blood that circulates
through the liver
Kupffer cells
also secrete mediators that regulate protein
synthesis in hepatocytes
Kupffer cells
hereditary or acquired defects in the
enzymes
Porphyrias
nvolved in heme biosynthesis result in the
accumulation of the various intermediary
porphyrins that damage hepatocytes,
erythrocyte precursors, and other tissues
Porphyrias
iver increases the conjugation of bilirubin
and the storage of iron
