Which leukocytes are derived from the myeloid line?
Neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, and monocytes
Which class of leukocytes develops into macrophages in the tissues?
umm.....
What is hypercellular?
Hypercelluar marrow, is when the marrow has an abnormal increase in cells present normally relating to leukocytes and their precuors. Common in acute myeloid leukaemia.
What is the connective tissue made of two types of cells cell parts and plasma?
Two kinds of connective tissue make blood cells for the body, myeloid tissue & lymphatic tissue. Myeloid tissue is found in the sternum, ribs & hip bones, and forms erythrocytes; lymphatic tissue is found in the lymph nodes, thymus & spleen, and forms leukocytes.
What leukocytes produce antibodies?
B lymphocytes
What tissues in a bone produce white blood cells?
There are two types of bone marrow, red and yellow. Red blood cells, platelets, and white blood cells arise in Red Marrow, myeloid tissue.
What is diapedisis?
Increased capillary permeability allows leukocytes to pass from the vessels into tissues
Is mastocytosis myeloid or lymphoid?
I believe it is myeloid.
Which leukocytes are not considered lymphocytes?
A myeloid cell is any leukocyte (white blood cell) that is not a lymphocyte. These are white blood cells that function as part of the immune system, and defend the body against disease and infection. Under normal conditions, leukocytes only account for about 1% of the blood supply. When you become sick, the body makes more leukocytes to combat invading or damaged cells. There are seven types of leukocytes, six of which are classified as myeloid cells: # Neutrophils: defend against bacterial and fungal infections, dead cells become pus # Eosinophils: primarily defend against parasitic infections # Basophils: generally involved in allergic response, they release antihistimines # Monocytes: work with Neutrophils to remove dead cells and debris from the blood # Microphages: Consume and digest pathogens and stimulate other leukocytes # Dendritic cells: process antigens, which aids the body in developing immune response The seventh type of leukocyte is the lymphocyte, which is mainly found in the lymphatic system, and comprise three types of cells (B-cells, T-cells, and Natural killer cells) that fight viral infection and tumors, make antibodies, and coordinate the immune response against intracellular bacteria. Leukocytes are not classified as myeloid cells.
Which body tissues produce prostaglandins?
Most cells, in all body tissues, have the ability to produce protstaglandins.
How is leukemia classified?
Leukemias are classified as either lymphocytic or myeloid, depending on the type of leukocyte affected. In addition, leukemias are classified as either acute, referring to a rapidly progressing disease that involves immature leukocytes, or chronic, referring to a slower proliferation involving mature white cells. In acute leukemias, immature nonfunctioning leukocytes called blast cells proliferate.
What WBC type resides primarily in the tissues of the body?
Leukocytes primarily reside in tissues standing guard so to speak, ready to fight off infections such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and tumor cells.
