Figure 2.1The developmental pathway of various cell types from pluripotential bone marrow stem cells.

This granulocyte has very tiny light staining granules (the granules are very difficult to see). The nucleus is frequently multi-lobed with lobes connected by thin strands of nuclear material. These cells are capable of phagocytizing foreign cells, toxins, and viruses.
When taking a Differential WBC Count of normal blood, this type of cell would be the most numerous. Normally, neutrophils account for 50-70% of all leukocytes. If the count exceeds this amount, the cause is usually due to an acute infection such as appendicitis, smallpox or rheumatic fever. If the count is considerably less, it may be due to a viral infection such as influenza, hepatitis, or rubella.
Neutrophil
![Page 7: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
This granulocyte has large granules (A) which are acidophilic and appear pink (or red) in a stained preparation. This micrograph was color enhanced to illustrate this feature. The nucleus often has two lobes connected by a band of nuclear material. (Does it looks like a telephone receiver?) The granules contain digestive enzymes that are particularly effective against parasitic worms in their larval form. These cells also phagocytize antigen - antibody complexes.
These cells account for less than 5% of the WBC's. Increases beyond this amount may be due to parasitic diseases, bronchial asthma or hay fever. Eosinopenia may occur when the body is severely stressed.
Eosinophil
![Page 8: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The basophilic granules in this cell are large, stain deep blue to purple, and are often so numerous they mask the nucleus. These granules contain histamines (cause vasodilation) and heparin (anticoagulant).
In a Differential WBC Count we rarely see these as they represent less than 1% of all leukocytes. If the count showed an abnormally high number of these cells, hemolytic anemia or chicken pox may be the cause.
Basophil
![Page 9: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The lymphocyte is an agranular cell with very clear cytoplasm which stains pale blue. Its nucleus is very large for the size of the cell and stains dark purple. This cell is much smaller than the three granulocytes (which are all about the same size). These cells play an important role in our immune response. The T-lymphocytes act against virus infected cells and tumor cells. The B-lymphocytes produce antibodies.
This is the second most numerous leukocyte, accounting for 25-35% of the cells counted in a Differential WBC Count. When the number of these cells exceeds the normal amount, one would suspect infectious mononucleosis or a chronic infection. Patients with AIDS keep a careful watch on their T-cell level, an indicator of the AIDS virus' activity.
Lymphocyte

This cell is the largest of the leukocytes and is agranular. The nucleus is most often "U" or kidney bean shaped; the cytoplasm is abundant and light blue (more blue than this micrograph illustrates). These cells leave the blood stream (diapedesis) to become macrophages. As a monocyte or macrophage, these cells are phagocytic and defend the body against viruses and bacteria.
These cells account for 3-9% of all leukocytes. In people with malaria, endocarditis, typhoid fever, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, monocytes increase in number.

Development of dendritic cells & macrophages
![Page 13: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Macrophages are 5 - 10 fold largerthan monocytes, and contain moreorganelles, especially lysosomes.

Phagocytosis and processing of exogenous antigen by macrophages
![Page 16: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The background cells in this micrograph are erythrocytes (red blood cells). These cells are non-nucleated, biconcave discs that are filled with hemoglobin. The primary function of these cells is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the body cells.
Woman usually have 4-5 million erythrocytes per cubic millimeter of blood, men have 5-6 million. If this number is considerably higher, polycythemia may be the cause. If the number is considerably less, the person has anemia.
Erythrocyte
![Page 17: Elements of innate and acquired immunity](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070402/568138a5550346895da06346/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited condition which results in some erythrocytes being malformed. The gene for this condition causes the hemoglobin to be incorrectly formed, which in turn causes some erythrocytes to take on a crescent shape. These cells are not able to carry adequate amounts of oxygen to cells.

Phagocytic defenses
Phagocytes : - class of cells capable of ingestion (engulfment) & destruction of microorganisms - recruited to site of inflammation - two cell types
1) neutrophil (PMN) - 1st to accumulate around invaders & initiate phagocytosis
2) tissue & blood borne macrophages (mononuclear phagocytes - migrate to site & initiate phagocytosis

Inflammation
- Def: Tissue reaction to infection or injury, characterized by erythema, swelling, heat, pain & loss of normal tissue function- Necessary for proper functioning of host defenses
Erythema : due to increased blood flowSwelling : due to increased extravascular fluid & phagocytic infiltrationHeat : due to increased blood flow & pyrogensPain : due to tissue distruction & irritation of sensory nerve receptors
