hematopoietic system Flashcards
(94 cards)
in hematopoietic system, what are the changes that can happen in a normal maturation of cell?
changes in size, nucleus, cytoplasm, chromatin, and granules
what is under the “Cytoplasmic changes”
provide the events under this one
there will be a loss of basophilia
A. loss of basophilia
The cytoplasm of an immature cell is usually blue
or basophilic due to ___ content.
RNA
Immature cells has ____ due to RNA
intense, dark color
The more mature the cell, the ___because of the less RNA
less basophilic
what is the purpose of red or acidic dye?
colors the acidophilic or eosinophilic granules
purpose of the blue (basic) dye
colors the basophilic granules
the use of basic and acidic dye
for Neutrophilic granules
which is a special feature of
the maturation of erythrocytes
elaboration of hemoglobin
do immature rbc has hemoglobin? what about nucleus?
immature rbc has no hemoglobin but has nucleus. Once they matured, they will lose the nucleus but will be able to contain hemoglobin
how many stages are there for rbc to mature?
6 stages
the process in which the nucleus of the matured rbcs are eliminated
nucleolysis or extrusion
what are the 6 series of maturation of the rbc
2nd- start the synthesis of hgb
o 3rd- starts the synthesis of hgb
o 4th- stop the hgb synthesis
o 5th- reticulocytes
o 6th- matured erythrocytes
Nuclear changes - what is the structure and chemistry
immature cells - round or oval
nuclear chromatin is very delicate and fine linear
a chromatin for immature cells - delicate fine and linear is called
euchromatin
what is the color of the euchromatin
pale blue - uncondensed
As the cells matures chromatin strands
increasingly
coarse
and clumped
the euchromatin is now called as
heterochromatin
as the cell mature, the chromatin before denser and has a color of
darker color
if the shape of the cell change, do nucleus will change as well?
yes ofcors
the older the cell the more segments or lobes that
nucleus has
true or false
true
a neutrophil that has lobes mor than 5
hypersegmented neutrophils
hypersegmented neutrophils is common in
megaloblastic anemia
one of the feature or the hallmark of this disease- hypersegmented neutrophil
megaloblastic anemia
reduction in cell size
It is a feature of all cells except in the
megakaryocytic series
