Bone Marrow Histology

Erythropoiesis is the proerythroblast - a large, slightly basophilic cell, which contains a large, lightly stained nulceus.

Proerythroblast

Proerythroblasts proliferate to generate a sequence of cells which show a gradual decrease in size and condensation of their chromatin. named after changes in the staining characteristic of their cytoplasm

  1. basophilic erythroblast
  2. polychromatophilicm normoblast
  3. orthochromic normoblast

Normoblast

The nucleus is finally extruded from the normoblast.

Reticulocyte

Cell enters circulation as a reticulocyte that still contains some organelles.

Reticulocytes remain for a few days in either the bone marrow or the spleen to mature to erythrocytes.
