ferritin and
hemosiderin
Ferritin is a globular protein complex
consisting of 24 protein subunits and is
the primary intracellular iron-storage
protein in both prokaryotes and
eukaryotes, keeping iron in a soluble and
non-toxic form. Ferritin that is not
combined with iron is called apoferritin.

La función más importante es el transporte, y en este sentido el de oxígeno, pero hay más.
Transfusiones!!! Necesario y BTC. Partes útiles de la sangre.
Herramienta no invasive diagnóstica
Among blood’s many functions, transport of oxygen to the tissues is the most important. In order for cells to run aerobic metabolism, they require oxygen. Without oxygen, the tissues begin to break down.
Blood is also needed in trauma situations. In just the United States alone, millions of units of whole blood are needed each week
Collected whole blood is also broken down into various other products. The plasma from whole blood can be used for transfusion, or it can be fractionated into other medications, such as clotting factors for hemophiliacs
Diagnostic Blood Tests
A. Changes in some of the visual properties of blood can signal diseases such as anemia, heart disease, and diabetes
B. Differential white blood cell counts are used to detect differences in relative amounts of specific blood cell types
C. Prothrombin time, which measures the amount of prothrombin in the blood, and platelet counts evaluate the status of the hemostasis system
D. SMAC, and a complete blood count (CBC) give comprehensive values of the condition of the blood
Recall for the students that blood is a fluid connective tissue. That is, blood nicely fits the cardinal properties of connective tissue, a population of cells—the RBCs and WBCs—scattered within an acellular matrix—the plasma.
There are striking differences between blood and the other connective tissues, however: The cells were not formed within the connective tissue, and the matrix was not produced by the blood cells but by many other cells past which the blood flows.
- EL plasma es muy parecido al espacio extracellular. Sólo se diferencia en las proteinas
- The plasma proteins play the main role of providing the “colloid” osmotic pressure that sucks fluid back into capillaries from the interstitial space. Inadequate levels, due to liver disease or malnourishment, result in ascites, accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity.
Emphasize that the hematocrit is an indirect measurement of the O2-carrying capacity of the blood. More red blood cells mean more O2 carried by the same volume of blood.
As a point of interest, mention that well-oxygenated blood is bright red; normal deoxygenated blood (at the tissue level) is dark red.
Mention that serum is essentially plasma without clotting proteins
If a sample of blood is drawn into a tube with an anticoagulant (heparin or citrate) to prevent clotting, then allowed to stand, the heavier blood cells will settle to the bottom. The clear straw-yellow fluid remaining on top is plasma. Occasionally, abnormal appearance of the plasma indicates a pathology. Patients with excessively high concentrations of lipid in the blood may have cloudy rather than clear plasma. In extreme cases, a fat layer floats to the top of the plasma, much like the layer of cream that forms at the top of bottles of unpasteurized milk.
If a blood sample is collected without anticoagulant and allowed to clot, the fluid that remains when the clot settles to the bottom is called serum.
Serum albumin, often referred to simply as albumin is a globular protein. is the most abundant plasma protein in mammals. Albumin is essential for maintaining the oncotic pressure needed for proper distribution of body fluids between intravascular compartments and body tissues. It also acts as a plasma carrier by non-specifically binding several hydrophobic steroid hormones (thyroid hormones) and as a transport protein for hemin and fatty acids. Albumin is a soluble, monomeric protein which comprises about one-half of the blood serum protein. Albumin functions primarily as a carrier protein for steroids, fatty acids, and and plays a role in stabilizing extracellular fluid volume. Albumin is a globular un-glycosylated serum protein of molecular weight 65,000. Albumin is synthesized in the liver as preproalbumin which has an N-terminal peptide that is removed before the nascent protein is released from the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The product, proalbumin, is in turn cleaved in the Golgi vesicles to produce the secreted albumin
Albumin (when ionized in water at pH 7.4, as found in the body) is negatively charged. The glomerular basement membrane is also negatively charged in the body; some studies suggest that this prevents the filtration of albumin in the urine. According to this theory, that charge plays a major role in the selective exclusion of albumin from the glomerular filtrate. A defect in this property results in nephrotic syndrome leading to albumin loss in the urine. Nephrotic syndrome patients are sometimes given albumin to replace the lost albumin.
All globulins fall into one of the following four categories:
Alpha 1 globulins
Alpha 2 globulins
Beta globulins
Gamma globulins (one group of gamma globulins are the immunoglobulins, which are also known as "antibodies")
Alpha 1 globulins[edit source | editbeta]
α1-antitrypsin
Alpha 1-antichymotrypsin
Orosomucoid (acid glycoprotein)
Serum amyloid A
Alpha 1-lipoprotein
Alpha 2 globulins[edit source | editbeta]
Haptoglobin
Alpha-2u globulin
α2-macroglobulin
Ceruloplasmin
Thyroxine-binding globulin
Alpha 2-antiplasmin
Protein C
Alpha 2-lipoprotein
Angiotensinogen
Beta globulins are a group of globular proteins in plasma that are more mobile in alkaline or electrically charged solutions than gamma globulins, but less mobile than alpha globulins.[1][2][3]
Examples of beta globulins include:
beta-2 microglobulin
plasminogen
angiostatins
properdin
sex hormone-binding globulin
transferrin
Fibrinogen (factor I) is a soluble, 340 kDa plasma glycoprotein, that is converted by thrombin into fibrin during blood clot formation. Fibrinogen is synthesized in the liver by the hepatocytes. The concentration of fibrin in the blood plasma is 200-400 mg/d

Bone marrow cultures (BMC) can be used for cancer patients in whom chemotherapy will kill their stem cells. A bone marrow sample is taken from a matched donor or from the patient (if patient’s marrow is used, the transplant is called autologous; if from a matched donor, homologous). The stem cells are separated out and grown up in long-term BMC. The procedure must either include growth factors or stromal cells in the culture. The ECF matrix of marrow binds growth factors and is necessary for normal development. Stromal cells secrete growth factors necessary to maintain multipotent stem cells and to promote their growth and division into committed stem cells of various lines. In culture, myeloid stem cells can differentiate into adipocytes, the same transformation that occurs normally in inactive marrow regions of adults. Stromal cells secrete CSF-1 (=M-CSF), GM-CSF, and G-CSF, but not IL-3, the most potent stimulator of multipotent stem cells.
why the kidney is the logical organ to control the release of erythropoietin. This fact is probably puzzling until you let them know that the kidney receives almost 25 percent of cardiac output and is profoundly dependent on good blood flow to function and remain healthy. Point out that the kidney secretes erythropoietin in response to decreased levels of oxygen, not to decreased levels of RBCs. That is, the kidney is measuring a chemical property and NOT doing a blood count!
During fetal development, the liver also produces significant amounts of EPO, but that contribution diminishes with age. In an adult, the liver produces no more than 15% of the EPO found in the body.
Erythrocyte Disorders
a. Anemias are characterized by a deficiency in RBCs that may originate from several causes:
i. Hemorrhagic anemia resulting from excessive blood loss.
ii. Iron-deficiency, pernicious, or renal anemia resulting from nutritional deficiency in either iron or vitamin B12, or a lack of EPO, which leads to underproduction of erythrocytes.
iii. Hemolytic anemias in which erythrocytes are prematurely destroyed.
iv. Thalassemias, characterized by an abnormality in one or more globin chains that compromises the oxygen-carrying ability of RBCs.
v. Sickle-cell anemia, in which hemoglobin changes shape when oxygen levels are low, causing cells to rupture easily and block small blood vessels.
b. Polycythemia is characterized by an excess of RBCs due to oxygen deficiency or disease, which may increase blood viscosity, causing poor blood flow and oxygen delivery. Some cases of polycythemia vera occur in people who live in hypoxic conditions at high altitude, while in other cases the etiology of the disease is unknown. Regardless of cause, polycythemia vera is easily treated by removing some blood if the hematocrit goes above 55%. Phlebotomy (phleps, vein + (o)tomos, cutting) is the removal of blood from a vein, a procedure performed nowadays with a needle by modern health care practitioners. This treatment is almost the only reason for therapeutic bloodletting practiced today.
La anemia macrocítica es un término generalizado que incluye a un grupo de anemias caracterizadas por eritrocitos con un volumen corpuscular medio (VCM) mayor de 100 micras cúbicas
Anemia perniciosa debido a una deficiencia en el factor intrínseco.
Deficiencia de vitamina B12.2

During a gastric bypass, the stomach is stapled and reattached to the small intestines at the level of the jejunum. As a consequence of this procedure, iron absorption may be impaired. Also, vitamin B12 reabsorption may be impaired owing to decreased concentrations of intrinsic factor (produced by the stomach) released into the stomach

A normocytic anemia is defined as an anemia with a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of 80-100 which is the normal range. However, the hematocrit and hemoglobin is decreased
an increased destruction or loss of red blood cells (e.g., hemolysis, posthemorrhagic anemia);
an uncompensated increase in plasma volume (e.g., pregnancy, fluid overload);
a B2 (riboflavin) deficiency[2]
a B6 (pyridoxine) deficiency
A moderate elevation of WBCs (leukocytosis) is often a sign of infection. Very high counts may indicate leukemia
Leukemias—cell division out of control: Retroviruses have been linked to some types of leukemias. Human T cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) causes T cell leukemia/lymphoma or hairy cell leukemia. When the marrow of patients with leukemia is put into culture, about 50% of the time, the abnormal leukemia cells will die off but the normal cells will grow and thrive. This occurs because these strains of leukemic cells require growth factors that are not present in the stromal cells of the culture. This technique can be used to make cancer-free marrow for autologous transplant. In the remaining leukemias, the abnormal cells do not require colony-stimulating factors for growth, resulting in uncontrolled replication.
