Clinical Laboratory - Hematology:
Hematopoiesis, Erythropoeisis, &
Thrombopoiesis
adipocytes - ANSWER *large cells with a single fat vacuole;

*secrete various steroids that influence erythropoiesis;

*maintain bone integrity;

*play a role in regulating volume of marrow in which active hematopoiesis occurs.

adult hematopoietic tissue - ANSWER bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and
thymus.

apoptosis - ANSWER programmed cell death, a normal physiological process that eliminates
unwanted, abnormal, or harmful cells.

B lymphocytes (B cells) - ANSWER *arise from bone marrow;

*constitute 10%-15% of circulating lymphocytes;

*form humoral or antibody-mediated immune system (make antibody);

*defend against viruses and bacteria that enter the blood and lymph;

*when stimulated, produces plasmablast and plasma cells.

*antibody production, antigenic presentation for

T cell activation.

Basophil - ANSWER *Function: innate and adaptive immunity; initiator of allergic
inflammatory response, control of parasitic infection;

*Ref range: 0-2%

*Absolute: 0-200 uL

bone marrow - ANSWER *located within the cavities of the cortical bones;

two types:

*red marrow - hematopoietically active;

*yellow marrow - inactive marrow composed primarily of adipocytes (fat cells);

of equal amounts in adults;

*during infancy and early childhood, the bone marrow consists primarily of red active marrow;

*between 5-7 years of age, adipocytes become more abundant and begin to occupy the spaces in
the long bones previously occupied by active marrow.

common (committed) lymphoid progenitor - ANSWER proliferates and differentiates into
lymphocytes of T, B, and natural killer lineages.

common (committed) myeloid progenitor - ANSWER colony-forming unit (CFU-GEMM) -

Thrombopoiesis
proliferates and differentiates into individual granulocytic (myelocytic), erythrocytic (normoblastic),
monocytic, and megakaryocytic lineages.

cytokines - ANSWER *signaling proteins - hematopoietic growth factors;

*specific glycoproteins that have direct or indirect effects on hematopoeitic precursor cell regulation
(stimulation or inhibiition) of proliferation, differentiation, maturation, and trafficking;

*include: interleukins, monokines, interferons, chemokines, and colony-stimulating factors (CSFs)

endothelial cells - ANSWER *active in endocytosis

*allow easy access from bone marrow to peripheral blood (capillaries) after maturation of progenitor
cells;

*cells also involved in cytokine production.

Eosinophil - ANSWER *Function: immune regulation, response to parasitic infections,
allergic response regulator;

*Ref range: 1%-3%

*Absolute: 0-400 uL

Erythrocyte destruction - ANSWER Extravascular hemolysis

Intravascular hemolysis

2. Basophilic Normoblast

3. Polychromatophilic Normoblast

4. Orthochromic Normoblast

5. Polychromatophilic Red Cells

6. Erythrocyte

Lifespan - 120 days in circulating blood.

Erythrocyte Maturation Sequence:

Orthochromic Normoblast (Metarubricyte) - ANSWER * 8-12 microns

Lifespan - 48 hours

Erythrocyte Maturation Sequence:

Polychromatic (Polychromatophilic) Normoblast (Rubricyte) - ANSWER * 10-15 microns
