Study Notes
Hematopoiesis and Immune System Development
- Hematopoiesis involves the production and maturation of blood cells from multipotent stem cells
- Site of hematopoiesis changes during development: yolk sac during embryogenesis, liver and spleen during early fetal development, and bone marrow in adulthood
- Multipotent stem cells in bone marrow can undergo asymmetric division
- Asymmetric division results in one daughter cell renewing stem cell population and the other becoming a common lymphoid or myeloid progenitor cell
- Various cytokines and growth factors influence differentiation of multipotent stem cells into lymphoid and myeloid cells
- Development, differentiation, and maturation of erythrocytes, megakaryocytes, and leukocytes involved in hematopoiesis
- Hematopoiesis is a complex process involving multiple stages and cell types
- Self-renewal and potency are key functions of multipotent stem cells in hematopoiesis
- Hematopoiesis shifts from yolk sac to liver and spleen, and finally to bone marrow during development
- Multipotent stem cells play a crucial role in maintaining the blood cell population throughout life
- Common lymphoid and myeloid progenitor cells are derived from multipotent stem cells
- Cytokines and growth factors play a significant role in regulating the differentiation of stem cells into specific blood cell types
