Document Summary
Leukopoiesis = production of white blood cells. Substances (proteins or peptides) which are released by one cell and affect the growth, development, and activity of another cell. Hematopoietic growth factors (hgf) cytokines influencing the proliferation and differentiation of blood cell precursors. Substances (proteins or peptides) which are released by one cell and affect the growth, development and activity of another cell. Cytokines influencing the proliferation and differentiation of blood cell precursors are known as. Injection of bone marrow stem cells can reconstitute all hematopoietic cell type. Flat bones of skull, shoulder blades, pelvis, vertebrae, sternum, ribs, proximal epiphyses of long bones. Rbc facilitate transport of respiratory gases (oxygen and co2) between lungs and cells. Lack nuclei and most organelles can"t reproduce nor maintain normal structure for very long. Erythrocyte production site is the soft interior of certain bones called bone marrow.
