MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Hematopoiesis – the formation of blood cellular components – occurs during embryonic development and throughout adulthood to produce and replenish the blood system. Studying hematopoiesis can help scientists and clinicians to understand better the processes behind blood disorders and cancers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hematopoiesis during Development. The early stages of mammalian hematopoiesis, which begins in the blood islands of the yolk sac, may be divided into two developmental processes (Fig.

Detailed explanation-3: -Red blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow of bones. Stem cells in the red bone marrow are called hemocytoblasts. They give rise to all of the formed elements in blood. If a stem cell commits to becoming a cell called a proerythroblast, it will develop into a new red blood cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -A number of studies have now confirmed that the development of the hematopoietic system, in humans and other mammals, occurs in two phases: a primitive hematopoietic phase that gives rise to transitory, bi-potent HSCs, and a definitive hematopoietic phase that generates long-lived, multipotent HSCs [3].
