ERITHROPOIESIS
bloodcell(RBC)
nucleol
i
- Round
- Primitive nucleus, visible nucleoli
- N:C ratio 8:1 to 6:1
- 14 – 24 um, 1-2 nucleoli
- Usually slight larger than myeloblast and
has more cytoplasm-> deeper blue (>>
ribosome and RNA)
- Perinuclear halo
- Sometimes pseudopodi
BASOPHILIC NORMOBLAST
(PRORUBRICYTE/BASOPHILIC
ERYTHROBLAST)
- Smaller than pronormoblast
- N:C 6:1 to 4:1, 12-17 um
-Coarsening of the chromatin
pattern than pronormoblast
- The nucleoli ill defined or not
visible
- More RNA and hemoglobin
- the cytoplasm may be a
deeper,richer blue than in the
pronormoblast due to RNA but
can be pinkish tinge reflecting
hb
POLYCHROMATOPHILIC NORMOBLAST/
RUBRICYTE/ POLYCHROMATOPHILIIC
ERYTHROBLAST
- smaller, 10-15 um
- Hb twice than basophilic norm.
- More cytoplasma than basophilic
norm.
- Cytoplasm Pink blue due to Hb and
RNA, late stage more pink
- Nuclear chromatin is thickened and
irregularly condensed (irregular
pyknotic mass)
- 4:1 to 2:1
ORTHOCROMATIC
NORMOBLAST/METARUBRYCITE/
ORTHOCROMATIC ERYTHROBLAST
- solid, blue back, degenerated
nucleus with a non linear
clumped chromatin pattern
- Nucleus pycnotic (no white
areas)
- Cytoplasm predominantly pink
or redish but remain minimal
blue cytoplasm due to RNA
- N;C 1:1 to 1:2
RETICULOCYTE (DIFFUSELY BASOPHILIC
ERYTHROCYTE, POLYCHROMATOPHILIC ERYTHROCYTE)
Reticulocytes: reticular material (precipitated RNA
and protein) is shown clearly in normal blood by
supravital staining with new methylene blue
- Larger than mature red cell 8-10um
- Released 2-3 day from BM and circulates 1-2 day
before mature
The cytoplasm can be compared with that of the
late orthochromic normoblast in that the
predominant color is that of hemoglobin yet with a
bluish tinge due to some residual ribosomes and
RNA.
LEUKOPOIESIS
LEUKOPOIESIS
Terminology base on cytoplasm
Eosinophilic
Basophilic
Neutrophilic
NUCLEAR MATURATION
SHAPE
Round or oval in blasts
Striking changes in granulocytes
STRUCTURE
Delicate netlike or spongelike chromatin in
blasts
Chromatin strands become more coarse and
clumped as the cells matures
Reduction in the number of nucleoli

MYELOBLAST
SIZE: Ø 10 – 20 µm,
N/C ratio 6:1
NUCLEUS: occupies most of the cell, round or oval, thin
membrane, fine dotted or network pattern
chromatin.Nucleoli 2 – 5 usually distinct because surrounded
by chromatin
CYTOPLASM: deep blue, scanty, could be as a rim around
the nucleus, no granules
PROMYELOCYTE
SIZE: Ø 14 – 20 µm,
N/C ratio 5:1
NUCLEUS: round, thin membrane, a network of coarse
chromatin
CYTOPLASM: not homogenous, light blue with wine red &
irregular azurophilic granules
MYELOCYTE
SIZE: Ø 10 – 18 µm,
N/C ratio 5:1
NUCLEUS: round, eccentris, usually no nucleolus, but could be
single, coarse chromatin
CYTOPLASM: contains the largest quantity of azurophilic granules.
Specific granules are formed could be eosinophilic, basophilic or
neutrophilic
METAMYELOCYTE
SIZE: Ø 10 – 18 µm,
N/C ratio: 1.5 : 1
NUCLEUS: renal shape, thick membrane, coarse chromatin no
nucleolus
CYTOPLASM: pink with specific granules
BAND CELL
SIZE: Ø 10 – 15 µm,
N/C ratio 1.5:1
NUCLEUS: band shape, coarse
chromatin
CYTOPLASM: pink with specific
granules
SEGMENTED CELL
SIZE: Ø 10 – 15 µm,
N/C ratio 1:3
NUCLEUS: segmented, connected with thin filaments, usually 2 – 3
lobuli, coarse block like chromatin
CYTOPLASM: pink, abundant with specific granules
MONOPOIESIS
MONOBLAST
PROMONOCYTE
MONOCYTE
PROMONOCYTE
SIZE: Ø 14 – 18 m,
N/C ratio 5:1
NUCLEUS : with indentation, thin membrane
Chromatin in coarse clumps, Nucleolus 0 – 1
CYTOPLASM: pale blue
This cell can not be found in the peripheral blood, except in tbc,
RES disorders, and monocytic leukemia
MONOCYTE
SIZE: Ø 12 – 18 µm,
N/C ratio 4:1
NUCLEUS: indented or coiled, Sometimes with 2 – 3 lobuli or like the letter E,
Scarce chromatin and loose structure
CYTOPLASM : blue with fine azurophilic granules,
Vacuoles can be found near the nuclear indentation Bacteria, parasites can be
found due to phagocytosis
•Under conditions of increased demand for monocytes, promonocytes undergo four
divisions to yield a total of 16 monocytes in 60 hours.
