Physiology 4th Lecture Affinity of Oxygen in Blood
Physiology 4th Lecture Affinity of Oxygen in Blood
Production of red blood cells starts in the 2nd week of embryonic development. 25% of the stem cells in
the blood marrow function in production of RBC, and 75% in priduction of WBC (some have a life
span of only a few days).
Bone marrow: specific hemopoetic microclimate
selfrenovation
selfproduction
without exhaustion (entire life)
central role in regulation of Hb – heme
Regulation:
1. humoral
2. nervous
1. Erythropoetin (kidneyes, liver (less)), stimulus – hypoxia (deacresing of oxygen)
Hormones: STH+, TSH+, ACTH, androgenes+, estrogens-
2. CNS – cerebral cortex (weeker effect)
hypotalamus
intervation of BM – sensitive to catecholamines, Ach
Factors that decrease oxygen --> Tissue oxygenation --> Erythropoietin --> stem cell -->
proerythroblast --> red blood cells
Agranulocytes
Lymphocytes (25%)
Monocytes (4-6%)
leucocytosis, leucopenia
absolute (bone marrow), relative
Properties of WBC:
tigmotaxis
margination
diapedesis
ameboid movement
chemotaxis
phagocytosis
antibodies productions (B-lymphocytes)
Kinetics of Ne.
1. mitotic part: cell proliferation 3 – 5x
differentiation (mtelocytes)
2. maturation: 10 days (metamyelocytes)
3. in blood: marginated Ne 50% (lungs, liver, spleen, adrenaline – demargination)
circulatory Ne 50%
4. tissue part: survive 4 days, don't move back to the blood.
Increase during inflamation
Regulation of leucopoesis
1. granulocytes – macrophage colony stimulating factor
GM-CSF – leucopoetin
2. G-CSF
3. M-CSF
4. multipoitential CSF
