Study Notes
Erythropoiesis
- Erythropoiesis involves the following anatomical sites: bone marrow, spleen, and liver
- The primary stimulus for the production of red blood cells is hypoxia
Stages of RBC Maturation
- The series of RBC maturation includes: pronormoblast, basophilic normoblast, polychromatophilic normoblast, and orthochromic normoblast
- The polychromatophilic normoblast stage is characterized by nuclear chromatin that becomes more clumped and is the last stage with nucleolus
- The basophilic normoblast takes 3 days to develop into orthochromic normoblast
