during childhood bone marrow is progressively replaced by what in long bones?

most common is CD34 expression |
|
where to transfused stem cells home?
|
transfused stem cells home to and replicate in the BONE MARROW STROMA (the appropriate microenvironment for hematopoeitic cell dvpt)
|
|
growth factors responsible for hematopoietic dvpt
|
GLYCOPROTEIN HORMONES
|
|
where do the GLYCOPROTEIN HORMONES responsible for hematopoietic dvpt come from?
|
may be produced by local cells in the marrow (t-cells, MOs, endothelial cells and fibroblasts)
or come through the circulation from distant sites (eg erythropoietin from the kdiney) |
|
biological effects of GLYCOPROTEIN HORMONES, the GROWTH FACTORS responsible for hematopoietic dvpt are MEDIATED BY:
|
specific cell surface receptors, which send signals to the nucleus to respond in certain ways
|
|
how many miles does our blood travel per day?
|
12,000
|
|
how many liters of blood are in our bodies?
|
5-6 liters

(1x10^12) |
|
typical hematopoietic production might average:
x RBCs/second x WBCs/second x platelets/second |
3 million RBCs/second
27,000 WBCs/second 2-4 million platelets/ second |
|
how much can hematopoietic production increase on demand?
|
by 5-10 fold
|
