KIN 272 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Oncotic Pressure, Biliverdin, Extracellular Fluid
Document Summary
Liver takes bilirubin, adds substances, chemicals, salts to turn it back to green bile. Jaundice- skin turns yellow because liver is receiving bilirubin and not turning it into bile: bile emulsifies fat; takes large pieces of fat and breaks it down to free fatty acids. When beavers build a dam: fibrin= sticks, platelets= mud: serum vs plasma, serum- no clot forming protein in blood; fibrinogen that is converted to fibrin has been removed, plasma- contains fibrinogen. Lymphoid stem cell- form lymphocyte: t cells, b cells, nk cells: governs immune system, hemocytoblast myloid stem cell proerythroblast basophilic normoblast . I"d like (cid:373)ore red (cid:272)ells: remove a pint spin it, remove rbcs, freeze them reinject them later + plasma. Inject epo: borrow from an animal = unsafe, taking external epo will cause body to stop making its own, will go through a period of anemia.
