Study Notes
Erythropoiesis Regulation
- Erythropoietin is the primary regulator of erythropoiesis.
Characteristics of Hematopoietic Cells
- Pronormoblasts (Rubriblasts) are large cells with a large nucleus and a scant amount of cytoplasm.
Characteristics of Blast Cells
- Blast cells in the hematopoietic system are generally large in size.
Erythroid Precursor Cell Differentiation
- Erythroid precursor cells differentiate to become mature through the process of erythropoiesis.
Cell Characteristics
- A predominance of DNA in a cell is indicated by a high nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratio.
