Transcript FATE OF RBC`S

Learning Objectives of today’s
• Revise
– Erythropoiesis
– Regulation of Erythropoiesis
• Fate of RBCs
RBC Formation before birth
•
Mesoblastic stage
– Nucleated RBCs - Yolk sac
Mesothelial layers of the placenta –
3rd week
•
Hepatic stage
• At 6 weeks - Liver form blood cells
– Spleen + lymphoid tissues form
blood cells.
RBC Formation before birth
•
Myeloid stage
•
From the third month on - the bone
marrow gradually becomes the principal
source of the RBCs
•
Last month – Bone marrow exclusively
Relative rates of red blood cell production in the bone
marrow of different bones at different ages.
Bone marrow cells for Erythropoiesis
• Pluripotential hematopoietic stem cell, PHSC
– Colony-forming unit–erythrocyte, CFU-E
Factors:
– Growth inducers
– Differentiation inducers.
Features of a Mature RBC
• Biconcave disc
• Mean Diameter 7.8 um
• Can deform easily.
• Bag of fluid with dissolved substances
and hemoglobin
• No sub cellular particles
• Metabolism
– Anaerobic respiration- Glycolysis
– Pentose phosphate pathway.
RBC Count
• Remains remarkably constant although
there are some variations.
• MALE :
5.2 ± 0.3 x 106 /uL.
• FEMALE :
4.7 ± 0.3 x 106 /uL.
• Life span :
120 Days.
Regulation of Erythropoiesis
• Importance
• Factors affecting Erythropoiesis
– Tissue Oxygenation
• Anemia,
• Bone marrow destruction
• High Altitudes,
• Cardiac failure,
• Respiratory problem
ERYTHROPOITEN
• Sites of production
• If Erythropoiten production reduced
• Stimulants of Erythropoiten production:
– RENAL MECHANISM
– NON RENAL MECHANISM
– In Renal failure?
• Formation of Erythropoiten
– Erythrogenin – Renal Erythropoitic factor
– Erythropoitinogen
• Stimulants for Erythrogenin
• Role of Erythropoiten
• Recombinant Erythropoiten
• Vit B12 & Folic acid
– Essential for formation of thymidine triphosphate
• Vitamin C
– Potentiate the effect of Folic acid
– Also helpful in Iron Absorption
• Reducing Ferric to ferrous form
• Pyridoxine:
– Glycine and succinyl-CoA condensation
• Riboflavin and Pantothenic acid
– Heme formation
– Cell growth and division
• Metals
• Iron
• Copper
– Ceruloplasmin
– Necessary for Iron transfer from storage
sites
• Bone marrow, Liver and Spleen
• Cobalt
– Forms a part of Vitamin B12
• Nickel and Manganese
• Proteins
– Formation of Globin
– Protein deficiency
• Hormones
• GH, Testosterone , TH, Cortisol, ACTH
• Other factors………………..
If you complain about your transport
system, What about them?
At 120 Days…. in RBC’s
1. No DNA,RNA
2. No protein synthesis
3. Enzymes exhausted
4. Decreased energy production
5 Increased rigidity of cells (memb lipids
rearrangements)
6. Triggering of cell lysis

When you were born you were crying and
everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life in such a way, so that when
you die, you're the one smiling and
everyone around you is crying..............
