Normal Percentages Of Different WBCS Polymorphonuclear neutrophils 62 % Polymorphonuclear eosinophils 2-3 % Polymorphonuclear basophils 0.4 % Monocytes 5.3 % Lymphocytes 30.0 %

Movement of neutrophils showing characteristics of granulocytes

Granulopoiesis Myeloblast. Size : Micro meter Shape:Round/ Oval Nucleus: Large, oval or Round and eccentric. Has a thin nuclear membrane and finely dispersed, granular, purplish, pale chromatin. 2-5 light blue-gray nucleoli. Cytoplasm: Small, basophilic, lacks specific or non specific granules Nuclear/ cytoplasmic ratio 7:1

Promyelocyte. Size:14-20 Micro meter Shape:Round or Oval Nucleus: Round, oval or eccentric, possibly slightly indented and surrounded by a thin membrane, still large but is beginning to shrink. Chromatin condensation appear. 1 – 3 nucleoli may be faintly visible. Cytoplasm: Pale blue. nuclear / cytoplasmic ratio is 4:1 or 5:1. None specific, peroxide containing azurophilic granules are characteristic

Myelocyte. Size: Micro meter Shape: Round Nucleus: Condensed, oval, slightly indented and eccentric. Chromatin coarse. Nucleoli absent Cytoplasm: Light pink, acidophilic. Nuclear/ cytoplasmic ratio is 2:1 or 1.5 : 1 contain specific (neutrophilic) granules that are coarse. A few non specific granules also seen.

Metamyelocyte. (Juvenile cell that is last cell capable of mitotic division) Size:12 – 18 Micro meter Shape: Round Nucleus: Eccentric, condensed, indented. Nuclear membrane thick and heavy. Chromatin concentrated into irregular thick and thin areas. Cytoplasm: Abundant, pale or pink Nuclear cytoplasmic ratio 1:1 very few non specific granules present. Neutrophilic granules vary in size but somewhat finer than the previous stage. Basophilic and eosinophilic granules are large and equal in size.

Band granulocyte ( Stab cell). Size: 10 – 15 Micro meter Shape: Round Nucleus: elongated, curved and U-shaped. Not segmented but slightly indented at 1 or 2 points. Chromatin thick and coarse. Cytoplasm: pale or colorless Nuclear cytoplasmic ratio 1 : 2 Contains few non specific and more specific granules.

Segmented( mature) granulocyte. Size: 10 – 15 Micro meter Shape: Round Nucleus: Eccentric with thick chromatin masses. Divided into 2 – 5 lobes connected to each other by thin bridges of nuclear membrane. Cytoplasm: Abundant, colorless or eosinophilic. Nuclear cytoplasmic ratio 1:2

Stages of Granulopoiesis

Neutrophils

Functions of Neutrophils Phagocytosis Lysosomes: Proteolytic enzymes Myeloperoxidase Bactericidal agents. e.g. Superoxide ions, Hydrogen peroxide, Hydroxyl ions

Neutrophilia Increased number of neutrophils in blood Causes: Acute bacterial infections. e.g. Pneumonias, appendicitis, tonsillitis Burns, hemorrhage, tissue injury Polycythemia vera Strenuous exercise

Neutropenia Decreased number of neutrophils in blood. Causes: Bacterial infections. e.g. Typhoid fever. viral hepatitis Kalazar (Schistosomiasis) Bone marrow depression Hypersplenism

Eosinophils

Characteristics of Eosinophils. Weakly phagocytic Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes Major basic protein--- larvicidal Reactive oxygen Histaminase Leukotreins Peroxidases Larvicidal

Eosinophilia Increased number of eosinophils in blood Causes: Allergic conditions e.g. Bronchial asthma, hay fever Parasitic infestations e.g. hookworm, trichinosis(Trichinella), schistosomiasis etc. Dermatitis Penicillin

Eosinopenia Decreased number of Eosinophils in blood Causes: Coticosteroids Over activity of adrenal cortex Diurnal variation: less in the morning,may be in response to increased secretion of ACTH in the morning

Basophils

Contents Heparin Histamine SRS ( slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis) Serotonin Leukotreins Bradykinin Eosinophil chemotactic factor Neutrophil chemotactic factor Many other lysosomal enzymes

Monocyte

Characteristics of Monocyte Phagocytosis Bactericidal agents Presence of lipase Can phagocytize about 100 bacteria, viruses, red blood cells and malarial parasite

Monocyte macrophage system Monocytes in blood plus both fixed and wandering macrophages Brain: Microglia Skin: Histiocytes Lungs: alveolar macrophages Liver: Kupffer cells Spleen, Bone marrow, lymphatics: Sinusoids Lymphatic Channels: littoral cells reticuloendothelial system

Inflammation 1 st line of defense: Macrophages 2 nd line of defense: Neutrophils 3 rd line of defense: Second macrophage invasion 4 th line of defense: increased production of granulocytes and Monocytes by bone marrow

Feedback control of the macrophage and Neutrophil responses
