  2. Haematopoiesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haematopoiesis

    Diagram showing the development of different blood cells from haematopoietic stem cell to mature cells. Haematopoiesis (/ h ɪ ˌ m æ t ə p ɔɪ ˈ iː s ɪ s, ˌ h iː m ə t oʊ-, ˌ h ɛ m ə-/; [1] [2] from Ancient Greek αἷμα (haîma) 'blood' and ποιεῖν (poieîn) 'to make'; also hematopoiesis in American English, sometimes h(a)emopoiesis) is the formation of blood cellular ...

  3. Haematopoietic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haematopoietic_system

    Haematopoiesis (from Greek αἷμα, "blood" and ποιεῖν "to make"; also hematopoiesis in American English; sometimes also haemopoiesis or hemopoiesis) is the formation of blood cellular components. All cellular blood components are derived from haematopoietic stem cells. [3]

  4. Hematopoietic stem cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell

    Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the stem cells [1] that give rise to other blood cells.This process is called haematopoiesis. [2] In vertebrates, the first definitive HSCs arise from the ventral endothelial wall of the embryonic aorta within the (midgestational) aorta-gonad-mesonephros region, through a process known as endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition.

  5. Nucleated red blood cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleated_red_blood_cell

    In mammals, NRBCs occur in normal development as precursors to mature red blood cells in erythropoiesis, the process by which the body produces red blood cells. NRBCs are normally found in the bone marrow of humans of all ages and in the blood of fetuses and newborn infants .

    Bone marrow aspirate showing normal "trilineage hematopoiesis": myelomonocytic cells (an eosinophil myelocyte marked), erythroid cells (an orthochromatic erythroblast marked), and megakaryocytic cells Hematopoietic precursor cells: promyelocyte in the center, two metamyelocytes next to it and band cells from a bone marrow aspirate

  7. Blood cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_cell

    A blood cell (also called a hematopoietic cell, hemocyte, or hematocyte) is a cell produced through hematopoiesis and found mainly in the blood. Major types of blood cells include red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes).

    A:Normal red blood cells are shown flowing freely in a blood vessel on the top of the diagram. The inset image shows a cross-section of a normal red blood cell with normal hemoglobin. B:Demonstrates abnormal, sickled red blood cells blocking blood flow in a blood vessel (vaso-occlusive crisis). The inset image shows a cross-section of a sickle ...

  9. Granulopoiesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulopoiesis

    Steady state granulopoiesis is a term used to describe the normal daily production of granulocytes. Granulocytes are short lived cells (their lifespan is between 6 and 8 hours) with a high cell turnover. The number of granulocytes produced every day is between 5 and 10 x 10 10. [13] The master regulator of steady state granulopoiesis is C/EBPα.
