6 BLOOD PLASMA COMPOSITION con t: PLASMA CLOTTING FACTORS FIBRINOGEN PROTHROMBIN THROMBOPLASTIN THROMBIN HORMONES - DIRECT ACTIVITY OF CELLS CHEMOTAXIS FACTORS ATTRACT IMMUNE CELLS

7 BLOOD SERUM SERUM YELLOW LIQUID FROM CLOTTED BLOOD (e.g., PLASMA MINUS CLOTTING FACTORS)

8 BLOOD (definition and function) BLOOD - FLUID TISSUE COMPOSED OF ERYTHROCYTES (RBC), LEUKOCYTES (WBC), AND PLATELETS SUSPENDED IN BLOOD PLASMA FUNCTION OF BLOOD IS TRANSPORTATION OF CELLS AND FLUID RBC 0 2 to and C0 2 from TISSUE

9 BLOOD FUNCTION OF BLOOD IS TRANSPORTATION OF CELLS AND FLUID WBC IMMUNE DEFENSE OF BODY PLASMA NUTRIENTS TO TISSUE WASTE FROM TISSUE PROTEINS TO HOLD WATER IN PLASMA HORMONES AND OTHER INFORMATIONAL MEDIATORS PLATELETS PREVENT LOSS OF TRANSPORTATION

10 Blood Copyright McGraw-Hill Companies Blood summary: Composition and cells Blood plasma is the liquid component of blood that holds blood cells in whole blood vs. blood serum is blood plasma without clotting factors.

Erythropoiesis Takes about 1 week and stimulated by erythropoietin Originate in bone marrow Involves major cellular changes Cell and nuclear volume decrease Nucleoli diminishes and disappears Chromatin density increases until nucleus extruded from cell Decrease in polyribosomes (basophilia) and increase in hemoglobin (eosinophilic) Mitochondria and other organelles disappear Steps 1. Proerythroblast Large cell with loose, lacy chromatin, nucleoli, and basophilic cytoplasm 2. Basophilic erythroblast Strongly basophilic cytoplasm, condensed nucleus, and no visible nucleolus 3. Polychromatophilic erythroblast Cell volume is reduced, polysomes decrease, and some cytoplasmic areas fill with hemoglobin producing basophilic and acidophilic regions in cell 4. Orthochromatic erythroblast Cell and nuclear volumes continue to condense and no basophilia is evident 5. Reticulocyte Cell ejects nucleus to become a reticulocyte, has a small number of polyribosomes 6. Erythrocyte Enter blood circulation, lose polyribosomes, and mature as erythrocytes

Myeloblast Most immature, finely dispersed chromatin, faint nuclei, and no cytoplasmic 2. Promyelocyte Basophilic cytoplasm and azurophilic granules being secreted in Golgi apparatus 3. Neutrophilic myelocyte Specific granules produced in Golgi, moderate number of azurophilic granuloes 4. Neutrophilic metamyelocyte Specific granules occupy most of cytoplasm, dispersed azurophilic granules, Golgi reduced 5. Neutrophilic band cell Nucleus is elongated but not yet polymorphic 6. Neutrophil 3-5 connected lobes, cytoplasm is granulated

78 Maturation of agranulocytes. All lymphocyte progenitor cells originate in bone marrow and migrate to the thymus or other lymphoid organ (lymph node, spleen, etc.) to proliferate. Some lymphocytes migrate to thymus, and acquire properties to be T lymphocytes. Some lymphocytes differentiate into B lymphocytes in the bone marrow and then migrate to peripheral lymphoid organs Steps 1. Lymphoblast Large cells capable of dividing 2-3X to form lymphocytes 2. Lymphocyte Maturation= nuclei becomes smaller, nucleoli become less visible, cells decrease in size Bone marrow= B lymphocyte specialization Thymus= T lymphocyte specialization 3. Mature lymphocyte Larger than newly formed lymphocytes Acquire distinctive cell surface and other proteins
