What are reticular cell?

Reticulocytosis is a condition where there is an increase in reticulocytes. It is commonly seen in Anemia. A reticulocyte is an immature red blood cell that appears especially during regeneration of lost blood.


What is the difference between NRBCs and Reticuloytes?

NRBCs (nucleated red blood cells) are immature red blood cells that still contain a nucleus, typically seen in the blood of infants or in certain medical conditions. Reticulocytes are also immature red blood cells, but they have lost their nucleus. Reticulocytes are released from the bone marrow into the bloodstream to eventually mature into erythrocytes (mature red blood cells).


Is polycythemia a characteristic of leukemia?

No. Polycythemia is an abnormally large number of red blood cells. Leukemia is the overproduction of immature white blood cells which hinders the synthesis of red blood cells.


What were porphyrias affecting heme biosynthesis in immature red blood cells called?

Erythropoietic porphyrias (erythropoiesis is the process through which red blood cells are produced).


What are the characteristics of mature red blood cells?

LOTS of haemoglobin (Hb) molecules to carry oxygen. (ie. ~100 million Hb/red blood cell). Immature red blood cells have few Hb in each blood cell.


What is the difference between a reticulate red blood cell and nucleated red blood cell?

A reticulate red blood cell, or reticulocyte, is an immature red blood cell. In mammals, reticulocytes do not have a nucleus. They are slightly larger and appear more blue in colour (with standard stain) than mature red blood cells. A nucleated red blood cell is one which contains a nucleus. Mature mammalian red blood cells do not have a nucleus. In mammals, nucleated red blood cells are more immature than reticulocytes - and are not normally seen in peripheral circulation. They can be a sign of anaemia if seen on a blood smear. Birds and reptiles have nucleated mature red blood cells.


What is the medical term meaning abnormal condition of red embryonic cells?

Reticulocytosis is an abnormal increase in the number of reticulocytes, or immature erythrocytes (red blood cells).


What is the material in the center of your bone and what it does?

Bone marrow is in the center of bone. It produces immature red blood cells.


What is a reticulocyte count?

A reticulocyte count is a blood test performed to assess the body's production of immature red blood cells (reticulocytes).


What is the role of heme in cell metabolism of immature red blood cells?

Heme is the featured component of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the red pigment that gives red blood cells their characteristic color and their essential ability to transport oxygen.


What is the name of the immature cell type released into blood circulation?

Immature cell types released into the blood circulation are called "blast cells." These are undifferentiated cells that have the potential to develop into various types of mature blood cells, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets. The presence of blast cells in the blood may indicate abnormal cell development, as seen in conditions like leukemia.


How are reticulocytes produced?

Reticulocytes are produced in the bone marrow through the process of erythropoiesis, which is the formation of red blood cells. They are immature red blood cells that still contain some organelles, such as ribosomes, and eventually mature into fully functional red blood cells in the bloodstream. Reticulocytes have a short lifespan in circulation before developing into mature red blood cells.
